A JSF inputSecret would behave like any other component. I have a couple ideas to try. We could try using the "clayOut" to generate makup that is ignored by the html to component mappings. <component jsfid="t:jscookHidden" extends="clayOut"> <attributes> <set name="escapeXml" value="false"/> <set name="value" value="<input type="hidden" name="jscook_action" />"/> </attributes> </component> Another option might be to use the tomahawk t:inputSecret. It has a forceId option that ignores naming containers. <component jsfid="t:jscookHidden" extends="t:inputSecret" id="jscook_action"> <attributes> <set name="forceId" value="true"/> </attributes> </component> > This leads me to wonder: Does the "name" attribute have to follow the naming > scheme of the id's?

But, I think that there are several efforts to solve the problem. The Trinidad tr:form component is not a naming container. This means that the components added to the trinidad form component will not be prefixed with the form name. The tomahawk components have the forceId. I want to say that JSF 1.2 has something similar but I might be making that up. <<>> I am not referring to the id, but to the "name".

The component should be renderering the hidden attribute if it is needed by the component. <<>> As you can see from a later mail, it's been fixed in tomahawk 1.1.6-SNAPSHOT, so I'm happy with that Hermod <<>> Gary > > [1] > http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MYFACES-219?page=com.atlassian.jira.plu gin. > system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel > [2] http://www.mail-archive.com/dev@myfaces.apache.org/msg20819.html > > Hermod > * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * > > This email with attachments is solely for the use of the individual or > entity to whom it is addressed.
