Hi,

Thank you, that's exactly the piece of information I was missing.

The value of @columns needs to = the # immediate children . If you want two tags to be in the same cell, wrap them w/ a panelGroup or panelGrid.

Hello,

I'm having some problems trying to understand how to

properly layout the

code. What I'm trying to do is use a panelgrid, one column

for the

label, one for the input, and potentially one for the error

message if

required. However, I can't seem to get to display correctly.

Some sample

code:

  <h:panelGrid columns="3">

      <h:outputText value="Id:">
      <h:inputText id="id" value="#{myForm.id}"/>

      <h:outputText value="Another ID:"/>
      <h:inputText id="anotherId" value="#

{myForm.anotherId}">

          <f:validateLength minimum="1" maximum="1" />
      </h:inputText>

<h:message style="color: red;" id="idError"

for="anotherId"/>

  </h:panelGrid>

Here are the issues I have. Firsly, because columns=3 in the

panel grid

definition, the first row has the "Another ID" text as the

last column.

Then to solve this I put columns=2 but now when there is a

validation

error on the second row, the error message appears as a

third row.

Your suggestions would be appreciated.

Steph
