How can i display Label from SelecteItem and use the value as a Key in rich:combobox? Jboss forums says it is not possible since the rich:combobox is designed for suggestion. Not really a replacement for h:selectOneMenu . is there any work around or alternative way?
PS: i tried using JSF converter it is modifying both value and label.
no.
use selectOneMenu.
add a4j:support as a child if you want ajax.

Is there a way to get SelectItemGroup values so that the entire trace of the SelectItem is contained in the value passed to the bean from the view? I have two SelectItemGroups and one SelectItem, but need the values contained in the SelectItemGroups as well.
It does not seem this is possible but would be a great feature. I used a Datatable instead but the MultiListBox would have been more elegant.
I'm currently using "filterBy" for filtering via inputText components and its working very well. I'd like to be able to filter one of my columns with the selectBooleanCheckbox component.
It looks like this can be done in primefaces:
Custom filters and converters in p:dataTable
But I'm not quite sure how to do it in icefaces (if at all possible)
According to an ICEfaces developer himself, this is not possible.

As explained in the link, you can use the "filterOptions" attribute to use a h:selectOneMenu with selectItems as a filter, which works for me.
I am trying to get the reusable group of jsf 1.2 components inside a panelgrid using Facelet tag file. #Balusc's previous answer at How to make a grid of JSF composite component? was a fabulous resource. I have a couple of followup questions:
In my c:when how do I test for the tagName itself instead of checking for the attributes. Instead of
<c:when test="#{type != 'submit'}">
I want to check tagName itself to decide how to format it. If 'input' do xxx.
2 Is this approach is still valid with jsf 1.2 other than f:ajax? If yes, can I replace with a4j:support...?

I'm not sure how this question makes sense. It sounds like that you're approaching something not entirely right. Do you maybe have copypasted exactly the same piece of code over multiple tag files? You should not do that. Make it a reuseable <ui:composition> or maybe <ui:decoration> instead which you compose/decorate in every tag file along with a fixed and unique <ui:param> value depending on the taglib file.

Being able to create tag files is not necessarily specific to JSF, but to the view technology used, which is in this case Facelets. You can even do similar stuff in its predecesor JSP, see also this answer for an example: JSF 1.2 custom component from jsp:include It should work just fine in every JSF version supporting the view technology in question.
As to ajax support, it doesn't matter to the tag file what you're all doing inside the tag file. If you want and can use <a4j:support> then just do it.
I have a form which one of it's fields is a code and description, also a button for opening a popup window that contains a list of all of the available codes.
when the user double clickes a row from that table i want to set these values to the code and description. - how can this be done?
Another question, I want to create this popup and table to be initialized dynamically - by that i mean that if i have a few forms in my application, when ever i have a field which has a description i want to be able to open this popup and to see the available list for that field. (every field can be from a diffrent table). is it possible to create something like that? if so, how?
Any help will be appritiated,
Thank's In Advance.
Yes, it is possible. Even more, many component libraries have ready to use popup/dialog components, such as RichFaces with <rich:popupPanel> and PrimeFaces with <p:dialog>.
If you do not want to use a component library for some reason, you would need to create a custom component for this which generates basically an absolutely positioned HTML <div> element with a CSS overlay which get shown/hidden by JS on a particular click/action. The HTML/CSS/JS part should be relatively simple if you are familiar with those languages. The JSF part is somewhat hard if you have never created a custom component before, but it should be possible with a composite component as well, so you could also just create one with pure XHTML. The updating/refreshing can just take place by the usual <f:ajax> means.
I'm developing an application in JSF 2.0.
I was wondering if there is a JSF component that supports an autocomplete function and that can hold multiple values (that binds to an array or a list). I don't have the time and knowledge to create such a component myself.
I know PrimeFaces has got the p:autoComplete (http://www.primefaces.org/showcase-labs/ui/autoCompletePojo.jsf) component, but it can only 'hold' one value. I'd need a component that can do what p:auotoComplete does, but multiple times; the textarea should be able to display multiple values. Is there a library that contains such a component?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
The latest PrimeFaces snapshot 3.1 got AutoComplete - Multiple Selection
You can get it from here
3.1-SNAPSHOT
You might see this Richfaces example. I think that tokens and autoFill = "false" will work.
