I like to propose a new component for Myfaces - t:repeater. It will allow a linear list of objects to be displayed in tabular form. The objects can be arranged in horizontal orientation. i.e.
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 Or in vertical orientation, i.e. 1 4 7 2 5 8 3 6 9 This is a control available in ASP.NET that I find very handy. It is a special case for t:columns, and I believe can be implemented on top of t:columns quite easily.

It's probably the best JSF replacement for c:forEach. As for t:columns, consider it as a dataTable within a dataTable, only the data is displayed horizontally rather than vertically. Internally, it's just a UIData component just like dataTable or dataList. -Mike On 11/1/05, Sven Haiges <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi there, > > I would like to render a panelGrid with an dynamic amount of items in > it.
