Using ui:insert for title in rich:page

pdpantages Sep 3, 2009 9:11 PM

Hello Forum,

I have a template that I want to use rich:page for. On the template, I had used a ui:insert to set the page title. Like so:

 <head>
 <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" />

 <title><ui:insert name="page_title">This window needs a title!</ui:insert></title>

Any page that used the template must set the page title with a ui:define directive.
I want to do this with rich:page also.

After switching to rich:page, I tried this inside the pageHeader facet.

<rich:page
 markupType="xhtml"
 xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"
 xmlns:ui="http://java.sun.com/jsf/facelets"
 xmlns:f="http://java.sun.com/jsf/core"
 xmlns:s="http://jboss.com/products/seam/taglib"
 xmlns:a4j="http://richfaces.org/a4j"
 xmlns:rich="http://richfaces.org/rich"
 xmlns:h="http://java.sun.com/jsf/html">

 <f:facet name="pageHeader">
 <title><ui:insert name="page_title">This window needs a title!</ui:insert></title>
 <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" />
 <link href="#{theme.css}" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
 <link href="#{theme.alarm}" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
 </f:facet>

However, the above does not work. The titles defined with ui:define are not set.
The page header facet seems to ignore the title tag.
Any help will be appreciated, as usual.

Thanks, PdP

Hi PdP,

Can you please try the following:

<f:facet name="pageHeader">
 <h:panelGroup><title><ui:insert name="page_title">This window needs a title!</ui:insert></title>
 <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" />
 <link href="#{theme.css}" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
 <link href="#{theme.alarm}" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" /></h:panelGroup>
 </f:facet>

Hello Nick,

Thanks for suggestion; I would not have thought to try this. Unfortunately, it did not work for me. Cut and paste exactly what I have below.

 <f:facet name="pageHeader">
 <h:panelGroup>
 <title><ui:insert name="page_title">This window needs a title!</ui:insert></title>
 <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" />
 <link href="#{theme.css}" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
 <link href="#{theme.alarm}" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
 </h:panelGroup>
 </f:facet>

could you try with 3.3.2 CR1 because of https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/RF-7249

Hello Ilya, I will try the CR at some point, (when I get some time).

For now, we have to make do with 3.3.1.

I wil post results when I get to it.

This won't work because two TITLE tags are generated. Use "pageTitle" attribute.

Yes, I kind of thought it was something like that.

I don't think I can use ui:insert with pageTitle=xxx. I will just bail on rich:page for now...

Thanks, PDP
