Apple Using JSF for online rebate system

Posted by edburns on September 16, 2008 at 2:22 PM PDT

I received a tip from href="http://matthiaswessendorf.wordpress.com/">Matthias Weflendorf
that Apple is using JSF for its online rebate site, which you can see at
< href="https://rebate.apple.com/art-web/pages/newAccountCreationPage.faces">https://rebate.apple.com/art-web/pages/newAccountCreationPage.faces>.
A quick View Source shows the presence of our javax.faces.ViewState
hidden field. Inspection of the value of that field leads me to believe
they are using href="https://javaserverfaces.dev.java.net/">Mojarra, but I am not
certain. If someone can confirm this, I’d be glad. I've added them to
the href="http://wiki.java.net/bin/view/Projects/RealWorldJSFLinks">RealWorldJSFLinks
Wiki. Please feel free to add any other sites that you know are usin
JSF.

But that doesn't change the fact that JSF is broken and half-baked and one has to patch it with Seam and Facelets to make it usable. The built-in components are also mostly half-baked and broken.
