Customize rendered code of (Trinidad) JSF components

[Thomas Hamacher <ha...@project-team.de>]

Hi @all,

I´m pretty new to JSF and like to ask a question concerning customizing
the Trinidad components.
The Trinidad input-components have some functionalities, that I need,
because they are not available in the core JSF-libraries.
But I´m not totally pleased with what Trinidad renders as html source
code. For example, when I define a tr:inputText, a complete table is built
around the input box, instead of using the <label>-<input> combination.
Furthermore the * appears, whenever the field is required, which does not
fit in my layout. So what I would like to do now is to redefine the html
source code that will be rendered by those components. Is there a way to do
this? I would I approach this issue? Or do I have to completely built my
own components?

So mabye some more experience JSF-developers have some advice here.

Thanks for help

Thomas

Hi Thomas,

inputText has an optional attribute to remove these :

<tr:inputText value="..." simple="true"/>

It should be enough for what you need.
