Unfortunately, I am not using Facelets for reasons explained on
different threads - I greatly appreciate your time to respond though.
However, I am not using Facelets for the project.
Thanks,
--Todd

Subject: Re: Can my idea be a custom JSF component?
If you are using facelets [1], you could create the component as a
composition of other components and then call it with a custom tag (i.e.
<myC:addRow />).
If you are not using facelets, you should take a look a it ;).

For my current project, I need to develop a component similar to
the following:
The Add Row button would add another row of Text and Value
textfields below the current one.
The Save button would change the textfields to read-only and
write the values into the
"variable1=value;variable2=value2;variable3=value3 ..." format and write
the value into a hidden field of type String.
The hidden field value is what I would pass to a Backing Bean,
etc...
To me, this doesn't extend any specific appropriate UIComponent
class, matter of fact - this is a group of components made of two
h:inputText components and two h:commandButton.
Maybe this really isn't a true custom JSF component, even
thought I'll use this so-called component in more than one place.
However, at this point I don't see any benefits of going down
the path of trying to make this a custom component, unless I am missing
something.
I'd appreciate any thoughts on the best way to handle the
development of this.
