Answer 1

For solving this problem this is what I did :

     1. Close the eclipse project
     2. Open the eclipse project
     3. Right click on the project
     4. Click on Validate

   => The (false) warnings are gone.

The XML taglib namespace URI does not point to a real web resource or something. It just points to the same value as the <namespace> entry of the .taglib.xml file of the XML taglib in question in the runtime classpath, which in case of JSF taglibs (and lot others) just happens to be a HTTP URL. In case of Mojarra, you can find the declaration in the /com/sun/faces/metadata/taglib/html_basic.taglib.xml file of the jsf-impl.jar file.

If you're encountering problems with referencing JSF HTML tags, then the cause lies somewhere else.

Previous answers were useful to me. Here I provide an alternative way for solving this issue. I fixed this problem by adding the jar primefaces-[version].jar to the WEB-INF/lib directory.
