</tr:form>

Events

Type Phases Description
javax.faces.event.ValueChangeEvent Process Validations,
Apply Request Values
The valueChange event is delivered when the value attribute is changed.
org.apache.myfaces.trinidad.event.AttributeChangeEvent Invoke Application,
Apply Request Values
Event delivered to describe an attribute change. Attribute change events are not delivered for any programmatic change to a property. They are only delivered when a renderer changes a property without the application's specific request. An example of an attribute change events might include the width of a column that supported client-side resizing.

Supported Facets

Name Description
help This facet should contain field level help.

Attributes

Name Type Supports EL? Description
accessKey char Yes Character used to gain quick access to the form element specified by the for, if set (or this component itself, if it is a "non-simple" form element). For accessibility reasons, this functionality is not supported in screen reader mode. If the same access key appears in multiple locations in the same page of output, the rendering user agent will cycle among the elements accessed by the similar keys.

This attribute is sometimes referred to as the "mnemonic".

attributeChangeListener javax.el.MethodExpression Only EL a method reference to an attribute change listener. Attribute change events are not delivered for any programmatic change to a property. They are only delivered when a renderer changes a property without the application's specific request. An example of an attribute change events might include the width of a column that supported client-side resizing.
autoComplete String Yes Valid Values: on, off

whether previous values of text fields in the form should be remembered and offered for auto completion.
autoSubmit boolean Yes If set to TRUE on a form element, the component will automatically submit the enclosing form when an appropriate action takes place (a click, text change, etc.).
binding org.apache.myfaces.trinidad.component.core.input.CoreInputNumberSpinbox Only EL an EL reference that will store the component instance on a bean. This can be used to give programmatic access to a component from a backing bean, or to move creation of the component to a backing bean.
columns int Yes the number of columns to display in the text control. If no value is specified, a default of 1 columns is used. One column is approximately one character in the browser's current display font.
contentStyle String Yes the CSS styles to attach to the content of the component. For example, you can set the width of that portion to 100 pixels by setting this attribute to "width: 100px".
converter javax.faces.convert.Converter Yes a converter object
disabled boolean Yes whether the element is disabled.
id String No the identifier for the component. The identifier must follow a subset of the syntax allowed in HTML:
  • Must not be a zero-length String.
  • First character must be an ASCII letter (A-Za-z) or an underscore ('_').
  • Subsequent characters must be an ASCII letter or digit (A-Za-z0-9), an underscore ('_'), or a dash ('-').
immediate boolean Yes whether the value is converted and validated immediately in the Apply Request Values phase, or is handled in the Process Validators phase, the default. By default, values are converted and validated together in the Process Validators phase. However, if you need access to the value of a component during Apply Request Values - for example, if you need to get the value from an actionListener on an immediate commandButton - then setting this to "immediate" makes that possible.
inlineStyle String Yes the inline CSS style for this element
label String Yes the label of the bean.
labelAndAccessKey String Yes An attribute that will simultaneously set both the "value" and "accessKey" attributes from a single value, using conventional ampersand ('&') notation.

For example, setting this attribute to "L&amp;abel" will set the label to "Label" and the access key to 'a'.

maximum int Yes The maximum number allowed in the input field.
minimum int Yes The minimum number allowed in the input field.
onblur String Yes the event handler for the component losing the focus.
Not supported on the following agents: pda
onchange String Yes event handler for when the value is changed.
onclick String Yes an onclick Javascript handler.
ondblclick String Yes an ondblclick Javascript handler.
onfocus String Yes the event handler for the component gaining the focus.
Not supported on the following agents: pda
onkeydown String Yes an onkeydown Javascript handler.
onkeypress String Yes an onkeypress Javascript handler.
onkeyup String Yes an onkeyup Javascript handler.
onmousedown String Yes an onmousedown Javascript handler.
onmousemove String Yes an onmousemove Javascript handler.
onmouseout String Yes an onmouseout Javascript handler.
onmouseover String Yes an onmouseover Javascript handler.
onmouseup String Yes an onmouseup Javascript handler.
onselect String Yes event handler for when text becomes selected.
partialTriggers String[] Yes the IDs of the components that should trigger a partial update. This component will listen on the trigger components. If one of the trigger components receives an event that will cause it to update in some way, this component will request to be updated too.
readOnly boolean Yes whether the element is read-only.
rendered boolean Yes whether the component is rendered. When set to false, no output will be delivered for this component (the component will not in any way be rendered, and cannot be made visible on the client).
required boolean Yes whether a non-null, non-empty value must be entered. If false, validators will not be executed when the value is null or empty.
requiredMessageDetail String Yes the message to be displayed, if 'required' validation fails.

Parameters:

  • {0} the label that identifies the component

shortDesc String Yes the short description of the bean. This text is commonly used by user agents to display tooltip help text.
showRequired boolean Yes whether the associated control displays a visual indication of required user input. If a "required" attribute is also present, both the "required" attribute and the "showRequired" attribute must be false for the visual indication not to be displayed.
simple boolean Yes a boolean value that controls whether the component provides label and message support; when set to "true", the component will not display messaging support or the label (these attributes may be ignored: label, labelAndAccessKey, accessKey, showRequired, tip), and may use simpler layout primitives
stepSize int Yes The step size by which the spinbox will increase or decrease the number in the input.
styleClass String Yes Valid Values: AFFieldTextMarker, AFFieldTextLTRMarker, AFFieldNumberMarker

a CSS style class to use for this component. The styleClass attribute value is rendered on the root dom element. We provide some public style classes you can use that will affect only the 'content' piece of the component: AFFieldTextMarker, AFFieldTextLTRMarker, AFFieldNumberMarker.
validator javax.faces.el.MethodBinding Only EL a method reference to a validator method
value Object Yes the value of the component. If the EL binding for the "value" points to a bean property with a getter but no setter, and this is an editable component, the component will be rendered in read-only mode.
valueChangeListener javax.faces.el.MethodBinding Only EL a method reference to a value change listener
