I am not sure if I understand what you mean, but you can use
forceId/forceIdIndex also inside dataTables. The next snipped comes
from the myfaces examples [1]:
<t:dataTable value="#{forceIdBean.choices}" var="choice">
<h:column>
<t:inputText id="widget" value="#{choice}"
forceId="true" forceIdIndex="true"/>
</h:column>
</t:dataTable>
Then, you can access to your element using the id widget[x], where x
is the index...
Hope that helps,
