ADF Faces: Remove navigation range bar at the bottom or top of a table
Monday, January 28th, 2008The ADF Faces default Oracle look and feel shows tables with two range choice bars - one added on top of the table and one at the bottom. To get rid of one of the navigation bars - or all of them - add the following style sheet directly to the page
PLAIN TEXT
XML:

ADF Faces: Instance specific row coloring using a custom skin
Tuesday, January 22nd, 2008Developing custom skins in JDeveloper 11 has improved a lot compared to skinning in ADF Faces of 10.1.3.

Here's what the tagging game [...]
ADF Faces RC: Single row / Multi row delete from a tree component
Thursday, January 10th, 2008The usecase I am covering with this blog entry is singe/multi row delete from a rich tree in ADF Faces RC.
