Re: Consumer Based Web Development

The person that said it would not work was probably using an older version
because JSF used to be 100% POST based and GET wasn't used in the least (at
least that is how I remember it).  That "feature" caused me a lot of grief
and work arounds that I had to create.  It is great to hear they addressed
that!

As you are considering JSF you should read up on some comments others have
had:

If you search the archives you can find my comments on it.
