I never configured the content-type. Where should it be configured? In my template I use | <f:view contentType="text/html"> | ... | </f:view> | Because otherwise the content-type is set to application/xhtml+xml, which causes some javascript to not function, and sets the background color to white, regardless of what I defined in CSS. Whoever decided to set the default content type that way deserves a good whipping. View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4066469#...
