Can JSF Facelets be used to include xhtml content in xforms?

I'm pursuing ways of including content - dynamically - in an xform view.html

An earlier thread I started explored php for scripting but that doesn't work yet.

I raise a new question now .. can JSF 2.0 Facelets be used to include content in xhtml?

I found these posts ..

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/4792862/how-to-include-another-xhtml-in-xhtml-using-jsf-2-0-facelets

http://www.roseindia.net/jsf/include.shtml

First I added a new app in /WEB-INF/resources/apps/ .. jsf-includes .. and created this test view.html with accompanying page-flow.xml.

<ui:composition 
    xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"
    xmlns:f="http://java.sun.com/jsf/core"
    xmlns:h="http://java.sun.com/jsf/html"
    xmlns:ui="http://java.sun.com/jsf/facelets">
    <h2>Include page</h2>
    <p>Include page blah blah lorem ipsum</p>
</ui:composition>

Next I took the standard xforms-hello app and amended it thus to include content returned from .. /jsf-includes/

<xhtml:html xmlns:xhtml="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"ludes/ 
      xmlns:xforms="http://www.w3.org/2002/xforms"
      xmlns:xxforms="http://orbeon.org/oxf/xml/xforms"
      xmlns:ev="http://www.w3.org/2001/xml-events"
      xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"
      xmlns:fr="http://orbeon.org/oxf/xml/form-runner"
      
      xmlns:f="http://java.sun.com/jsf/core"
      xmlns:h="http://java.sun.com/jsf/html"
      xmlns:ui="http://java.sun.com/jsf/facelets" >
       
    <xhtml:head>
        <xhtml:title>XForms Hello</xhtml:title>
        <xforms:model>
            <xforms:instance>
                <first-name xmlns=""/>
            </xforms:instance>
        </xforms:model>
    </xhtml:head>
    <xhtml:body>
        
    <ui:include src="http://localhost:8080/orbeon/jsf-includes/" />

<!-- the ui-include is immediately after <xhtml:body> -->

<!-- the remainder of view.xhtml remains unchanged -->

This url .. http://localhost:8080/orbeon/jsf-includes/

delivers the include content but it does not appear in the rendered xform ..

http://localhost:8080/orbeon/xforms-hello/

What else must I do to include/embed content in an xform app?

Administrator

DL,

I have no idea about facelets, but the answer probably lies in the
order in which things happen. That is, when is <ui:include> processed
wrt XForms processing? I assume, since things are not working, that
the order is 1) XForms processing 2) Facelet processing. But I am not
sure! And you probably want 1) Facelet processing 2) XForms
processing.
