h:outputLink

The outputLink tag renders an HTML anchor tag with an "href" attribute. The display value of the link can also be obtained from a message bundle to support internationalization (I18N).

This tag facilitates the construction of HTML hyperlinks by allowing you to nest param tags to construct querystring arguments. You can place outputText or graphicImage tags, for example, within the outputLink tag to set the hyperlink text or image value.

Example:

<h:outputLink id="link1" value="http://www.yourcompany.com">
  <f:param name="projectId" value="123" />
  <f:param name="userId" value="45" />
  <h:outputText value="Open Project" />
</h:outputLink>

HTML Output

<a href="http://www.yourcompany.com?projectId=123&userId=45" id="link1">Open Project</a>
