I'm using JSF templates and Primefaces.
Javascript code does not seem to be working under ui:composition and ui:define tags. The following code is not hitting the loaded() method. This is the content.xhtml file
<h:head>
<script language="javascript">
function loaded() {
alert("Working!!");
}
</script>
</h:head>
<ui:composition template="/template/template.xhtml">
<ui:define name="content">
<h:body style="width:100%;height:100%;" onload="loaded()">
<p class="item">Random text</p>
</h:body>
</ui:define>
</ui:composition>
but when i remove the define and composition tags the loaded function is called. Any idea why this is happening ?
Here is the template file
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"
xmlns:h="http://java.sun.com/jsf/html"
xmlns:f="http://java.sun.com/jsf/core"
xmlns:ui="http://java.sun.com/jsf/facelets"
xmlns:p="http://primefaces.org/ui">
<h:head>
<title><ui:insert name="title">Template</ui:insert></title>
</h:head>
<h:body>
<div id="header">
<ui:insert name="header">
<ui:include src="../menu.xhtml" />
</ui:insert>
</div>
<div id="content">
<ui:insert name="content">
<ui:include src="../content.xhtml" />
</ui:insert>
</div>
<div id="footer">
<ui:insert name="footer">
This is a footer
</ui:insert>
</div>
Everything outside <ui:composition>
is ignored during building the view. Also, redeclaring <h:body>
once again is unnecessary. To use a script which runs during on page load, better use a <h:outputScript target="body">
. This will be relocated to end of body and thus be invoked after the necessary HTML DOM elements are been built. This is also somewhat faster than an onload
.
All with all, your entire content.xhtml
must look like this:
<ui:composition template="/template/template.xhtml"
xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"
xmlns:f="http://java.sun.com/jsf/core"
xmlns:h="http://java.sun.com/jsf/html"
xmlns:ui="http://java.sun.com/jsf/facelets"
>
<ui:define name="content">
<h:outputScript target="body">
alert("Working!!");
</h:outputScript>
<p class="item">Random text</p>
</ui:define>
</ui:composition>
You are passing "content" to the template. If your template does not include "content", it won't be including in the resulting HTML.
Post the template.xhtml and let's see...
