Introduction
A component without any additions is equivalent to an empty plate with nothing. You need to serve contents into it to make it function properly. f: param provides this functionality to tunnel in required parameters and data elements. This blog will teach you how to use the f: param tag. Have a good time, Ninja!!
f:param Tag
Formally speaking, the f: param tag helps to pass parameters to UI components or pass request parameters. Its behaviour depends on the type of component to which it is attached.
Example 1: Passing parameter to UI/UX component
<h:outputFormat value = "Coding {0}!."> <f:param value = "Ninjas" /> </h:outputFormat>
<h2> <h:outputFormat value="Hello,{0}. You are from {1}."> <f:param value="#{ninja.name}" /> <f:param value="#{ninja.country}" /> </h:outputFormat> </h2>
</h:body> </html>
Output:
Enter your name here ('Ninja'), and click on the submit button.
Display the formatted message, "name" from user input, and "country" from the button parameter.
