components that can use

[bin z <bi...@gmail.com>]

Hi all,
Normally, I was using f:param with h:outputLink/commandLink. But yesterday I
tried to use it with h:inputText, it did not work.
Can anyone tell me which components can be used with f:param?

thanx & regards

AFAIK, it's up to the parent element to support <f:param>.. for
example if you nest a param inside an outputText, it is used to
replace part of the text marked as {1}, {2} etc.

What are you expecting <f:param> to do inside an inputText?

Technically all components can have a f:param (it just adds a
parameter component under the parent component). I have used it before
to add "special" functionality to a control (same as adding an
attribute). As for having the parameter in the request on POST back,
it only works with outputLink and commandLink I believe.
