The idea is that the component renders different form elements and validates differently for different countries. I'm making decent progress, but during my faces component writing travels I've come across the following dilemma.. To keep things tidy I've created a InputBban component that extends UIPanel, the Panel will that contain a InputBankCode and an InputAccountNumber component.. Now i could just render the lot in the Parent (InputBban), but should I really have a different renderer for each child and wire the parent to render the children? At the moment I'm doing everything in the Parent. I'm assuming that I wont need to use the children independently and that they will always be rendered as children of the parent (InputBban). Is this a good or bad thing to be doing? The other issue i could do with some help on is a tidy way to approach the rendering of different output and different validations for different countries. I guess its going to long whatever I do as the rules are going to be different between each country but any suggestions appeciated.. Mark
