I have been googling for some more information about what clay can and cannot do in comparison to what facelets can and cannot do. I have been testing facelets for some time now, but I would like to find out if it is worth the effort to have a go at clay as well. I feel certain we will be using Shale, so the question is what support technology we will combine Shale with... Facelets or Clay. Randahl [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > Hi > > 1.
