making paginator a component
Posted: 18 Jun 2010, 10:19
I like all the new skinning stuff for the paginator, but.... (why is there always a but 
) We have this really weird requirement that it should be possible to put more info, links or whatever in the datatable paginator. More specifically a 'refresh' button'. I've worked with richfaces in the past and they had this separate component that could be customized using facets, so instead of a paginatorTemplate with 'ordering' and some attributes to customize labels, a more flexible construction would be possible. This 'component' would ofcourse render a normal paginator, so all functionailty would be in place.
Is there interest in this? Or can my 'problem' be solved in a different way? (doing a refresh button outside the 'paginator' is not an option
Cheers,
Ronald
