Apple Using JSF for online rebate system

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

I received a tip from Matthias Weflendorf that Apple is using JSF for its online rebate site, which you can see at <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 Mojarra, but I am not certain. If someone can confirm this, I’d be glad. I've added them to the RealWorldJSFLinks Wiki. Please feel free to add any other sites that you know are usin JSF.

And they are using JBoss

This shows you how popular JSF is ... now ...

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.
