Thank you mgrouch and amitev. I like the idea of conditional rendering. I think it suits perfectly in this case. Let me ask one more question. Do jstl tags work with Seam scopes such as CONVERSATION, for example. This is not a build-in Servlet API scope, is it? Lets take c:forEach, for example, how can it find a variable if it is not in one of PAGE, REQUEST, SESSION or APPLICATION scopes? Thanks.
