Name | Type | Supports EL? | Description |
---|---|---|---|
accesskey | String | Yes | HTML: Sets the access key for this element. |
binding | String | Only EL | Identifies a backing bean property (of type UIComponent or appropriate subclass) to bind to this component instance. This value must be an EL expression. |
converter | javax.faces.convert.Converter | Yes | The value can either be a static value (ID) or an EL expression. When a static id is specified, an instance of the converter type registered with that id is used. When this is an EL expression, the result of evaluating the expression must be an object that implements the Converter interface. |
dir | String | Yes | HTML: The direction of text display, either 'ltr' (left-to-right) or 'rtl' (right-to-left). |
for | String | Yes | The client ID of the target input element of this label. |
id | String | Yes | An identifier for this particular component instance within
a component view.
The id must be unique within the scope of the tag's enclosing NamingContainer (eg h:form or f:subview). The id is not necessarily unique across all components in the current view This value must be a static value, ie not change over the lifetime of a component. It cannot be defined via an EL expression; only a string is permitted. |
lang | String | Yes | HTML: The base language of this document. |
onblur | String | Yes | HTML: Specifies a script to be invoked when the element loses focus. |
onclick | String | Yes | HTML: Script to be invoked when the element is clicked. |
ondblclick | String | Yes | HTML: Script to be invoked when the element is double-clicked. |
onfocus | String | Yes | HTML: Specifies a script to be invoked when the element receives focus. |
onkeydown | String | Yes | HTML: Script to be invoked when a key is pressed down over this element. |
onkeypress | String | Yes | HTML: Script to be invoked when a key is pressed over this element. |
onkeyup | String | Yes | HTML: Script to be invoked when a key is released over this element. |
onmousedown | String | Yes | HTML: Script to be invoked when the pointing device is pressed over this element. |
onmousemove | String | Yes | HTML: Script to be invoked when the pointing device is moved while it is in this element. |
onmouseout | String | Yes | HTML: Script to be invoked when the pointing device is moves out of this element. |
onmouseover | String | Yes | HTML: Script to be invoked when the pointing device is moved into this element. |
onmouseup | String | Yes | HTML: Script to be invoked when the pointing device is released over this element. |
rendered | boolean | Yes | A boolean value that indicates whether this component should be rendered. Default value: true. |
style | String | Yes | HTML: CSS styling instructions. |
styleClass | String | Yes | The CSS class for this element. Corresponds to the HTML 'class' attribute. |
tabindex | String | Yes | HTML: Specifies the position of this element within the tab order of the document. |
title | String | Yes | HTML: An advisory title for this element. Often used by the user agent as a tooltip. |
value | Object | Yes | The initial value of this component. This value is generally set as a value-binding in the form #{myBean.myProperty}, where myProperty can be any data-type of Java (also user-defined data-types), if a converter for this data-type exists. Special cases: 1) f:selectItems - value needs to bind to a list (or an array) of javax.faces.model.SelectItem-instances 2) components implementing UISelectMany (e.g. h:selectManyCheckbox) - value needs to bind to a list (or an array) of values, where the values need to be of the same data-type as the choices of the associated f:selectItems-component 3) components implementing UIData (e.g. h:dataTable) - value needs to bind to a list (or an array) of values, which will be iterated over when the data-table is processed |
