| Name | Type | Supports EL? | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| 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. |
| escape | boolean | Yes | Indicates whether rendered markup should be escaped. Default: true |
| 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. |
| 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. |
| 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 |
