>Unless you plan on being a myfaces core contributor, saying you need to know all of the internals in order to understand the concepts is like saying you need to see all of the trees before in order to understand you're looking at a forest.
That's a pretty big jump you labeled me with. I am saying that one should know all of the features of their car before they buy it, not that they should know how to put a modified exhaust on it. In the end it was my fault that I didn't look further into the datascroller component - I am recommending that the original poster do the same as they are determining the best approach for persistence.
