JSF 2.1 inputText类型属性

Question

We are working with JSF 2.1, and upgrading to JSF 2.2 is not an option at this time. For our application forms, I want to be able to add a type attribute to the inputText tags, so that mobile users will be presented with the correct keyboard for the data they are about to enter.

<h:inputText id="textID" type="text" value=""></h:inputText>
<h:inputText id="phoneNum" type="tel" value=""></h:inputText>
<h:inputText id="email" type="email" value=""></h:inputText>

How can I make this following rendered HTML happen with JSF 2.1?

<input id="textID" type="text" value=""/>
<input id="phoneNum" type="tel" value=""/>
<input id="email" type="email" value=""/>

How can I make this following rendered HTML happen with JSF 2.1?

• So for the first one ( type=text ) its given by default by using h:inputText tag.
• for the athors you can use Validator to validate your expression , for example to validate email address with regular expression ,the same for type=tel

See more about validator email example here email validator example

Or you can use primefaces inputText tag that make you able to use : tel , email as value of the attribut type like this :

<p:inputText type="email" value="#{userBean.userName}" />

<p:inputText type="tel" value="#{userBean.telephone}" />
