Brian Leathem commented on RF-11842:
------------------------------------

An example of _macrosubstitution_ for the richfaces 3 showcase:
{code:title=contextMenu}
<rich:contextMenu attached="false" id="menu" submitMode="ajax">
    <rich:menuItem ajaxSingle="true">
        <b>{car} {model}</b> details
        <a4j:actionparam name="det" assignTo="#{ddmenu.current}" value="{car} {model} details"/>
    </rich:menuItem>
    <rich:menuGroup value="Actions">  
        <rich:menuItem ajaxSingle="true">
            Put <b>{car} {model}</b> To Basket
            <a4j:actionparam name="bask" assignTo="#{ddmenu.current}" value="Put {car} {model} To Basket"/>
        </rich:menuItem>
        <rich:menuItem value="Read Comments" ajaxSingle="true">
            <a4j:actionparam name="bask" assignTo="#{ddmenu.current}" value="Read Comments"/>
        </rich:menuItem>                
        <rich:menuItem ajaxSingle="true">
            Go to <b>{car}</b> site
            <a4j:actionparam name="bask" assignTo="#{ddmenu.current}" value="Go to {car} site"/>
        </rich:menuItem>
    </rich:menuGroup>
</rich:contextMenu> 
{code}

{code:title=componentControl}
<rich:componentControl event="onRowClick" for="menu" operation="show">
    <f:param value="#{car.model}" name="model"/>
    <f:param value="#{car.make}" name="car"/>
</rich:componentControl>
{code}

Note, the replacement text in the contextMenu _{model}_ is not EL, this is a marker for substitution to be executed client side.
