Question

I got JSF Tomahawk messages and those messages got rendered as one HTML-Table. How do I avoid such tables? I would prefer one div for all messages which contains one paragraph for each message. Thanks in advance.

My JSF-file-snippet:

<t:messages layout="table" replaceIdWithLabel="true" showDetail="true" showSummary="false" styleClass="mycustomclasswhichgrabsthisshit" />

Check the Tomahawk tag documentation. The <t:messages> tag documentation says the following:

 Name   | Type   | Supports EL? | Description
 -------+--------+--------------+---------------------------------------------
 layout | String | Yes          | The layout: "table" or "list". Default: list

So, fix it accordingly:

<t:messages layout="list" ... />

Or just remove it altogether. It’s the default already.

You can if necessary remove the list bullets using CSS:

.mycustomclasswhichgrabsthisshit {
    list-style-type: none;
}

(disclaimer: the ranty classname is literally copied from your example, it’s not mine)
