How to iterate without generating table markup?

Let us say the reference #{cutomer.phoneNumbers} refers to a set of 
phoneNumbers then how do you output these phone numbers WITHOUT 
generating markup?

My problem is, if I use the h:dataTable tag it will generate table 
markup in the output HTML, and I just want to iterate over the set and 
output the raw phone number strings. h:dataTable will create something like
<table>
<tr><td>+45 12345678</td></tr>
<tr><td>+45 12345678</td></tr>
<tr><td>+45 12345678</td></tr>
</table>

But I am trying to create this

+45 12345678, +45 12345678, +45 12345678

I know that I am not supposed to iterate by using the often 
JSF-incompatible JSTL tags, so could anyone give me a clue to what the 
alternative is?

Any hints would be highly appreciated.

Thanks - exactly what I was looking for - I simply had not noticed that 
the x:dataList had a simple rendering mode. Great!

Take a look at the x:datalist component:

Take a look at the c:forEach tag in JSTL and let Mr. FacesServlet go home 
early for the day.
