    Simple Repeating Text

      Hi,


      how can i simply repeat some contents in an xhtml file like with an ordinary for loop in java?
      ui:repeat and a4j:repeat seams only to work with collections. But i only want to repeat
      the same content. For example



      In Java:


      for(int i = 0; i < 10; ++i) {
 ... output some text ...
}



      Thanks..

          <c:foreach var="i" begin="0" end="10">
    <h:outputText value="#{i}" />
</c:foreach>

            I tried it on the following simple page, but the output is empty.

              And when i replace 


              <h:outputText value="#{i}" />



              with


              <h:outputText value="test" />



              The output is only ONE test!

                Try it this way...


                <c:forEach var="i" begin="1" end="20" step="1" varStatus ="status">
<c:out value="${i}" /> 
</c:forEach>
