Hi ,
Can anybody tell me is it possible to use frames in facelets application?
I have been trying this for last 2 days but i am not able to make it work.

I am calling body.xhtml thru frameset but it is not getting displayed in UI.

Please look at the sample code is given below

listing.xhtml

<!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:ui="http://java.sun.com/jsf/facelets"
xmlns:h="http://java.sun.com/jsf/html"
xmlns:f="http://java.sun.com/jsf/core"
xmlns:a="http://www.arc-mind.com/jsf">

<ui:composition template="/WEB-INF/layout/layout.xhtml">
<ui:define name="title">Backend Listing</ui:define>
<ui:define name="content">
<h:form>

<h:commandLink action="#{CDManagerBean.addNew}">
<f:verbatim>Add CD</f:verbatim>
</h:commandLink>

</h:form>
</ui:define>
</ui:composition>

body.xhtml is given below..

<!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:a="http://www.arc-mind.com/jsf">

<h:form>
<h:dataTable id="items" value="#{CDManagerBean.cds}" var="cd"
rowClasses="oddRow, evenRow" headerClass="tableHeader">

<a:column entity="${cd}" fieldName="title" backingBean="${CDManagerBean}"/>
<a:column entity="${cd}" fieldName="artist" backingBean="${CDManagerBean}"/>
<a:column entity="${cd}" fieldName="price" backingBean="${CDManagerBean}"
sort="${false}"/>
<a:columnCommand label="Edit" action="editCD" backingBean="${CDManagerBean}"/>

</h:dataTable>

<h:commandLink action="#{CDManagerBean.addNew}">
<f:verbatim>Add CD</f:verbatim>
</h:commandLink>

</h:form>

Thanks in advance
