-----Original Message----- From: Jeff Bischoff [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Montag, 6. November 2006 18:48 To: MyFaces Discussion Subject: Re: Uidata first argument valueBinding MyFaces 1.1.3 Harry, I have made a wiki page [1] on this subject. Under the current implementation, you have to supply the glue for this yourself. (i.e. the attribute "first" can be considered read-only) Dev team - this question gets asked a lot. Maybe it is time to change the behaviour of t:dataTable/t:dataScroller to be more intuitive?
