Primefaces the undisputed Emperor of JSF UI
Congrats! Looks good, running well.
Ditto (I say the same thing)!!!
I like the opening sentence statement in this blog. It is SO appropriate and SO true!
Java EE and Agile Mentoring ***Powerhouse***, Prime Technology…
As always, I’m loving JSF/PrimeFaces!!!!
Argh, sorry german auto correction
Is there a chance to get a preview of the 3.4 Users Guide?
That is exclusive to PrimeFaces PRO users I’m afraid, community need to wait until official release.
Thanks prime for such a nice framework. I have been doing my first ever JSF project and I started coding using primefaces just in seconds. It is truly magnificent and simple.
Great job from great PrimeFaces crew!
Congratulations, nice work.
But i updated my project and occurred this error:
java.lang.NoSuchFieldError: SKIP_ITERATION
at org.primefaces.component.api.UIData.visitTree(UIData.java:624)
I’ll post in the forum, more information.
Congrats
Great work
Congrats! Great job.
Congratulations, nice work!!!
But could you please provide us a complete example for the new chart attribute “extender”? The one in the forum ( http://forum.primefaces.org/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=22851 ) is not working
I’d like to suggest a new feature that is the possibility to switch to full screen (F11).
There is a component in GitHub like this: https://github.com/sindresorhus/screenfull.js/
You also can see in DEMO: http://sindresorhus.com/screenfull.js/
It will be amazing if Primefaces add this feature.
I’d like to suggest too a new feature that is the possibility to hide the bar of the header of the component “carousel”.
Thanks.
Great work.
Congratulations, nice work.
I’d like to suggest a new feature, forcedId that works like Myfaces Tomhawk forcedId for components
