Re: formatted values in param

If you are using facelets, you could use an EL function to format the value

Hi all,

I wondered how to store formatted values in a parameter. Say I would like to set a formatted date as a message property...

Something like this:

//---------------------------------------//

<h:outputFormat value="#{messages['searchresults.lastModified']}">
   <f:param value="#{searchObject.lastModified}">
     <f:convertDateTime pattern="d MMM yyyy" locale="nl_NL" />
   </f:param>
</h:outputFormat>

//---------------------------------------//

this doesn't work since the param tag doesn't allow body content... and it doesn't seem to have support for using converters....

Is it possible to temporarely store the results of a conversion into a reusable variable?
