>I'm not sure why this behaves differently between myfaces and the RI but
It behaves differently because MyFaces and the RI implement getRenderKitId differently. In JSF 1.0, UIViewRoot.getRenderKitId was supposed to return "HTML_BASIC" if it had never been set - in other words, it would never return null. Both MyFaces and the RI did this. But when JSF 1.1 came out, this part of the spec changed. The RI changed w/ it but MyFaces hasn't yet. >I've been able to set the renderKitId and it seems to work on both runtimes, >>as you described above. Perhaps this explains your comments ... "It's necessary to explicitly set the kit id because it's lost when using the Sun RI.
