This is the end of the Build a JSF search page with
EGL tutorial.
Lessons learned
By completing this tutorial,
you learned how to do the following tasks:
- Create a simple search page
- Create an EGL library containing functions called by the search
page
- Create a customized EGL record part and display it on a page
- Use SQL statements in EGL code to filter results for a search
page
- Create Enhanced Java™ Server
Faces components on the web page and bind functions and variables
to them
- Modify your search functions to provide users with a choice of
search types
- Customize your search results
- Use type-ahead support on an input control
You may want to continue learning by working with the tutorial
application. Try adding this functionality on your own:
- Add a link from the search page to the updatecustomer.jsp page,
which you created in a previous tutorial. You will need to make the
link pass a parameter as you did on the allcustomers.jsp page.
- Try customizing the search results to include data other than
the name, email address, and state of the customer.
- Try applying type-ahead support or AJAX requests to other pages
in the project.
