Up 
Some time ago, I was given a copy of JSF 1.2 Components by Ian Hlavats and asked if I’d write a review for it. It’s long overdue, but here are my thoughts on this book.

New Components in Mojarra Scales: Part IV – sc:combo
Yesterday brought us Part III in our look at some new components in Mojarra Scales. Today, Part IV brings us sc:combo, combination, if you can imagine that, of a h:selectOneMenu and h:inputText.

New Components in Mojarra Scales: Part I – sc:dataTable
The migration of Mojarra Scales to JSF 2, adding new components has become much easier due to JSF 2′s new composite component feature.
