Hi Veerja,why don't you want to use <html>, <td> and <tr>? Maybe you can use instead of <table> a panelGrid. With panelGrids you needn't to use <td> and <tr>.RegardsMartin

Let me answer the question this way. <td> <tr> are HTML tags used inside an HTML <table>. They are not components.

JSF is a component technology that is *supposed* to be separate of the view device. That is why JSF has "Render Kits" and has one out of the box for HTML.

There is no such thing as a <td> component. Now you might find a JSF component like h:datatable that creates and HTML table. It uses h:column which is roughly equivalient to producing <td>. It has a datamodel that is iterated over producing the equivalent of <tr>. There are other 3rd party versions of table as well.

JSF out of the box does not have a component for HTML, unfortunatelly you have to put that tag directly into your JSP.

If you look at a third party framework like Trinidad you will see that they actually provide a component that handles the HTML, HEAD, and BODY tags for you <tr:document>
