Many thanks for your answers and pointing me into the right direction. I thought it was an EL issue.

You cannot refer to a table or datalist's rowIndexVar in a binding expression; it just cannot be done. No way. As described here, and as Jeff notes, there is only one set of components used to define a row, not a set of components for each row: http://myfaces.apache.org/api/apidocs/javax/faces/component/UIData.html Regards, Simon Jeff Bischoff wrote: > Michael, > > > <rm:statusBar binding="#{BatchController.statusBars[rowIndex]}" ... > > If t:dataList is like dataTable, then you can not do this.
