Hey Ted, Technically the “_parent” thing* is from the Ajax framework, so should be documented there.
As far as documentation is concerned, I’m afraid I don’t have any details for you (other than documentation == good). Anyone on the list care to chime in? D *FWIW, giving some (but unfortunately not all) Ajax components a ‘_parent’ binding for their updateContainerID is a shortcut for binding to something like this: public String parentUpdateContainerID() { return AjaxUpdateContainer.currentUpdateContainerID(); } which is pretty handy to know in its own right.
