----------------------------------

             Summary: EDT firstChild call will return a text element when the source code is formatted to have one element per line
                 Key: RF-13664
                 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/RF-13664
             Project: RichFaces
          Issue Type: Feature Request
      Security Level: Public (Everyone can see)
          Components: component-tables
            Reporter: Brian Leathem
            Assignee: Brian Leathem
             Fix For: 4.5.0.Alpha3


Formatting the generated html and viewing the result in chrome leads to an error in the EDT call:
{{this.frozenHeaderPartElement.firstChild.rows}}.  This is because when the element is followed by a newline, a text element is returned from the firstChild call.

Some solutions to this are discussed in the stackoverflow question:

I recommend we use jQuery here to resolve the first child in a cross-browser way.
