In case of dataTable the taglib docu says: Extended data_table that adds some additional features to the standard data_table ... so you are right to expect this, but in general if there is no significant difference there should no reason to have a component with the same name in core and tomahwak (or anywhere else). An if i decide to use the tomahawk one instead of the core one, i have to know these differences.
Or in other words: if not just this known difference is the reason to use the tomahawk component, there is no reason. just my opinion :-) Regards and good night Volker CONNER, BRENDAN (SBCSI) wrote: > I *do* expect that <t:dataTable> is a version of <h:dataTable> with > additional functionality.
