Attributes

Name Type Supports EL? Description
action javax.faces.el.MethodBinding Yes Specifies the action to take when this command is invoked. If the value is an expression, it is expected to be a method binding EL expression that identifies an action method. An action method accepts no parameters and has a String return value, called the action outcome, that identifies the next view displayed. The phase that this event is fired in can be controlled via the immediate attribute. If the value is a string literal, it is treated as a navigation outcome for the current view. This is functionally equivalent to a reference to an action method that returns the string literal.
actionListener javax.faces.el.MethodBinding Only EL A method binding EL expression that identifies an action listener method to be invoked if this component is activated by the user. An action listener method accepts a parameter of type javax.faces.event.ActionEvent and returns void. The phase that this event is fired in can be controlled via the immediate attribute.
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.
disabled boolean Yes When set instead of a Hyperlink a span tag is rendered in the corresponding Component
disabledStyle String Yes CSS-Style Attribute to render when disabled is true
disabledStyleClass String Yes CSS-Style Class to use when disabled is true
enabledOnUserRole String Yes If user is in given role, this component will be rendered normally. If not, no hyperlink is rendered but all nested tags (=body) are rendered.
icon String Yes
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.

itemDisabled boolean Yes Determine whether this item can be chosen by the user.
itemLabel String Yes Get the string which will be presented to the user for this option.

split boolean Yes
target String Yes
value Object Yes An EL expression that refers to a javax.faces.model.SelectItem instance.
