1. Is it OK to discuss libs that are not part of the MyFaces project on
the Wiki? If so I will edit down what I posted.
sure, why not; when helpful
2. I haven't done much programming like this and the code I posted could
use a once over. The methods do work but they are not pretty.
you are welcome. if someone is complaining, he should fix it.
Thanks!
