Jesse is correct. The input component does not render its children. So you can forget about what you are asking for as far as <h:inputText> goes. As Jesse suggests, you can write your own by extending it and allowing it to render its own children.
I'm not sure what your custom component does but its hard to imagine a component that would be nested inside of a text box. Instead of what Jesse is suggesting you could also consider writing your own inputText component that does whatever it is you are trying to achieve with your custom component. Then you just have a custom inputText instead of modifying inputText and also having another custom component. sean On 4/26/05, Jesse Alexander (KBSA 21) <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I understand it as works as designed. > > a parent component renders as follows: > > 1. render its own "header" > 2. render the children > 3. render its own "footer" > > think of the datatable: > first you must render the table and the table-header, > then you can render the children (here the columns) for each > row and at the end you need to render the table-footer and > close the html-table... > > So the rendering as described above is necessary. > > Now most components that do not necessarily think to > have "rendering" children are rendering on the closing tag... > (This behaviour is also proposed in the books...) > > Now what are your options? > > a) do as I proposed earlier: create a "wrapping around component" > > b) create a component which extends UIInput itself.
