I'd say this is the problem.
<b>Yes, this was the problem but using JSF 1.1 does not really provide an improvement over JSP in my case because am not able to use facelets which is the main feature I was interested in. In addition, using facelets allows the use of component libraries which reduces low-level programming of the view layer, aids rapid development and facilitates the use of AJAX.</b></pre>

<pre wrap="">The only limitation I
have now is that the UI component library am using is Primefaces and it
only supports JSF 1.2 and JSF 2.0 so maybe I would have to try out some
other UI component library. By the way, did you use any additional UI
component library similar to primefaces? and if you did, what
**component **library did you use?*

Using OpenCms with JSF was actually a (disappointing) experiment. Therefore, I
never tried using any component library with OpenCms.
<b>Now, I feel the same way too. It is really disappointing. Anyway, I have scrapped the idea of using JSF with OpenCms since I cant make use of component libraries.</b></pre>

<pre wrap="">*Yes I did include the required namespaces using *@taglib* and I also
tried using facelets approach (i.e using .xhtml and including the
namespaces as e.g * xmlns:h, xmlns:f*) but still got a blank page with
empty html source. Thanks once again for your help. I will try JSF 1.1
and will let you know how it turns out.*

The best would be to document your results on the wiki page, so other can
benefit from it as well.

<pre wrap=""><b>Actually, there isn't that much to document. The conclusion of the matter is still the same, we are stuck with JSF 1.1 which is almost the same as using JSP. Thanks all the same.
