Introduction to Apache Trinidad
-------------------------------

- Trinidad is a JSF component library
	- supports 508 accessibility
	- provides additional components, many with Ajax support
	- provides client-side validation (JavaScript)
	- efficient client-side state saving
	- skinning, including for mobile devices

- Trinidad works on top of any JSF implementation
	- Apache MyFaces
	- Mojarra

- Installing Trinidad
	- Place Trinidad JARS in WEB-INF/lib
	- configure Trinidad servlet filter in web.xml
	- configure Trinidad RenderKit in faces-config.xml
	- configure Trinidad ResourceServlet (for serving
            images, JavaScript, etc.)
	- They also recommend setting JSF state-saving method
	  to "client" to take advantage of the more efficient
          Trinidad client-side state saving

- Optional: Configuring Trinidad
	- write WEB-INF/trinidad-config.xml
	- configure stuff like skin, accessibility, 
          client-side validation, etc.

- Trinidad components include:
	- Enhanced data table with paging
	- Tree component
	- Chart component
	- Panels

- Trinidad Accessibility Features:

	- in trinidad-config.xml, you can configure:

  
         <accessibility-mode> - possible values: 
		default - accessibility provided
		inaccessible - turn of accessibility for performance
		screen-reader - also add to output to further support
	          screen readers (but may make it less optimal for
	          for non-impaired users). They don’t specify the
	          non-optimal stuff in the docs.

	  <accessibility-profile> - possible values:
		high-contrast - use a high-contrast “skin” for visually
			impaired users that don’t use a screen reader
		large-fonts - same as above, but increases the “normal”
			font size

	  Note that for the two above settings, you can use JSF EL 
   	  like #{myBean.accessibiltyMode} to read the setting from a
	  bean and thus support changing it dynamically.

	- trinidad components such as <tr:objectImage> also let you 
          specify longdesc URL (so does the standard <h:graphicImage>).
