just a comment,
if you are making a menu containing a list of options, you should use the
'ul' or 'ol' tag, so that the code is 'semantically correct'
as far as I know, there is no standard component to achieve this, but it
should be really easy to build such one and I'm sure at least you could
find one on the net

I have been trying to use c:forEach in my jspx pages but I keep
experiencing different kinds of problems. An example:
<c:forEach items="${treeMenuContractBean.menuItems}" var="menuItem">
<div style="margin-left: ${menuItem.marginLeft}">
<c:out value="${menuItem.prelude}"/>
<h:outputLink title="#{menuItem.name}"
value="#{menuItem.uri}">
<c:out value="${menuItem.name}"/>
</h:outputLink>
<c:out value="${menuItem.postlude}"/>
</div>
</c:forEach>
When this is run, I get
<a id="tree-menu-contract:_id1" href=""></a>
<a id="tree-menu-contract:_id2" href=""></a>
<div style="margin-left: 0px">The name of menu item 0</div>
<div style="margin-left: 50px">The name of menu item 1</div>
Now as you can see this result has several problems:
* The #{} value bindings have no effect - it is as if the menuItem var
is invisible to JSF, thus the href attribute is empty
* The div tags do not surround the anchor tags as intended - is it
really a requirement to use the x:div tag?
So I have been thinking that maybe using c:forEach is not compatible with
JSF - is there an alternative?
Any hints will be highly appreciated.
