Thanks! I will have a look at facelets then.

I thought the JSF was a breakthrough in the java web world because it
provided for the ability of developing and reusing components.
Maybe this is not so easy so far.
It seems I should stick to components that are already developed for the
time being.

It is a breakthrough, but due to the fact that JSF has different
rendering targets (html is only one option) as possibility the component
model is not the easiest
to write for. JSF is a generic framework for server side rendered UIs
with HTML being the default target (others exist)
If you stick with html as a rendering target there are easier
componentization options in the jsf world than writing a custom control
on the java side. I really can recommend that you look into facelets
which allows you componentization into tags without the framework
complexity underneath.
