Re: [jsr-314-open] ADMIN: Final list of issues for JSF 2.0 and actions for each

I was just emphasizing that it could very well be a spec issue (and Ryan suggested to me that such an idea should be debated). Our experiences just differ. I'm very surprised it doesn't come up for you more often. If you have two links next to each other (such as outputLink, commandLink, or Seam link) then there is no space between them, so it looks like one word. The more I think about it, the more I think this really could be solved in the Facelets parser. The only component that needs to skip whitespace (in the core set) is the PanelGrid...because every component becomes a column and the parent isn't looking for a specific child (like with dataTable looking for columns). I'm not saying the EG is sloppy. I'm saying that people will perceive JSF (perhaps just implementation) as being sloppy for requiring hacks for basic tasks...like putting two links side-by-side in a Facelets page. And people will say that because so far, this is the stuff that JSF gets beat up on. So let's put our most polised foot forward this time. -Dan -- Dan Allen Senior Software Engineer, Red Hat | Author of Seam in Action http://mojavelinux.com http://mojavelinux.com/seaminaction http://in.relation.to/Bloggers/Dan NOTE: While I make a strong effort to keep up with my email on a daily basis, personal or other work matters can sometimes keep me away from my email.
