Please can any one tell me from where I can have Visual JSF designer that can be integrated with Eclipse ?
And Why netbeas doesn't have this functionality
I know that Myeclipse provides this ability, but it;s just run on 32-bit in addition it's not free.
Thanks in advance.
If you have the Dynamic Web Module facet and JavaServer Faces facet added on your project, right click on the page you want and choose Open with -> Web Page Editor.
That works only with pure JSF tags, not with third party library ones like Primefaces. You can also go through JSF Web Page Designer, but not sure how it will work since it looks it's not updated since long time ago.

Recently in one of my classes, my Professor went over the basics of setting up a very basic Java Web Application program in NetBeans. After we created the project, the index.xthml file opened and we were told it is a JSF page. However my Professor kept using the term "JSF views" when we were going through the index. What exactly is a "JSF view"?
I was very impressed by this demo for the oracle ADF designer but it uses Jdeveloper and we dont like the ADF licensing.
Which of the more open licensed JSF libraries (if any) might give the closest/best drag & drop designer functionality using Eclipse? We would consider richfaces/primefaces/icefaces etc and dont know which one(s) offer the best designer experience
Check out JBoss Developer Studio. It's tightly integrated with RichFaces:

Check out this link http://livedemo.exadel.com/richfaces-demo/richfaces/dragSupport.jsf The site has lots of example for richfaces. I tried to learn primefaces but switched to richfaces as it was bit easier to learn and ajax support is awesome.
Is there a software that would enable graphic designer to use JSF GUI components in the initial web page design, before it gets into programmer's hands? Currently, graphic designer creates normal htmls using standard html components, then JSF programmer needs to replace all usual html tags with JSF tags.
Does any web design-programming tool suport JSF?
Use Oracle's JDeveloper. It's the only IDE that allows you to drag and drop JSF controls. The IDE is available only for Windows and Linux machines. Here is the link: http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/developer-tools/jdev/downloads/index.html
I am developing an xhtml editor. It will be used for files with primefaces and core jsf tags. I want to have a preview feature for this editor. It can be a rough preview or exact preview. I am not sure about the approach that can be used for this feature. Any pointer to the approach or suggestions are welcome.
Thanks!
I have a question for any JBoss Seam developers out there:
I am creating a web project using JBoss Seam by generating entities and reverse-engineering code from existing database tables. This is my first time developing a web app in JBoss/Java/JSF, being an old school .NET web developer from years ago.
How do I save user input in text controls, so that it stays on the web page after a page refresh? I used to use Viewstate or Sessionstate in .NET, not sure what the equivalent of this would be in Java/JSF. Someone mentioned using java beans, but not sure how to do that, and Googling produces little help.
Any comments much appreciated, thanks.
Rather than going through the steps required here, it might be easier for you to go through the Seam tutorial, which will give you the basics. You can then clarify things here afterwards:
