Thanks Andrew, I think I know what is the cause of my html output being so strange, and it is the include+subview, I have removed all Jsp and JSTL code and problems persisted. I can´t imagine converting all pure HTML code to JSF, that would be hundreds of hours of work!!! Do you perhaps know of all the guidelines that I must follow for using the subview functionality correctly? Or is there any alternative out there beyond the jsp:include for including one jsp inside another? (One that is pure jsf...) Regards, Jorge Vásquez

If you want to use JSTL with JSF, use facelelets and remove all JSP code (<%%>). I would recommend not using JSTL (or JSP) code for JSF pages, they don't play that well together. Facelets does support some of the JSTL functionality, but the author (Jacob) recommends that you do not use JSTL if at all possible. The best thing for conditional rendering (if logic) is to use the rendered attribute and when grouping components use the panelGroup component. If looping, the Tomahawk dataList control is very useful.
