Question

Is it possible to use primefaces datalist and fieldset elements in a nested way. My application needs to look something like this:

<p:fieldset>
    <p:dataList>
        <p:fieldset>
            <p:datalist>

            </p:datalist>
        </p:fieldset> 
    </p:dataList>
</p:fieldset>

I’ve tried it as mentioned above but I always get the following error:

javax.faces.view.facelets.TagException: /WEB-INF/flows/mainapp/wholesaleInfo.xhtml @106,105 Tag Library supports namespace: http://primefaces.org/ui, but no tag was defined for name: datalist

The datalist mentioned in the error message is of course the inner one… Any ideas how I could make that work? thanks Nikolaus

Answer 1

Try with dataList camelCase instead of datalist, in the inner one. This should make the error go away. However I am unsure if dataLists can be nested. If it’s just for layout – display purpose, you may have a look at p:layout
