Passing data to a JSF facelet

Question

On the 1st page that is displayed in my JSF application, I want to display data from a database in the form of a table. I have a ManagedBean called a ProductList which has an ArrayList of Product Objects, and I want to put all the Products in a table. I am using the jstl c:forEach tags, but for some reason I get a compile error:

Fatal Error: The prefix "c" for element "c:forEach" is not bound.

Am I using the forEach tag correctly?

<c:forEach items="#{productList.allProducts}" var="product">

</c:forEach>

Here are the namespace tags:

    <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"
    xmlns:f="http://java.sun.com/jsf/core"
    xmlns:h="http://java.sun.com/jsf/html">

Can you show the namespace definitions? It is the `html` tag, with all the `xmlns` attributes. — SJuan76, Dec 15 '12 at 19:49

You must define all the namespaces(the h:, f:prefixes of your xml tags) that you use in the page.

The proper definition for xmlns:c is xmlns:c="http://java.sun.com/jsp/jstl/core"

You can have a longer example here: <c:if test> seems to always evaluate true in JSF2 Facelets
