Guys,

For a project that I'm working, I would like to decide on the UI technology to be used. I'm considering to use jQuery for sure as a javascript framework, but would like to know if JSF would be the right choice to be used with jQuery. I have used jQuery with Struts 2.0 and did not face any problems, but I feel Struts 2.0 not so promising and would like to go with JSF. Please share your ideas here!

We used JSF in our last project and did not find any major issues. Moreover in certain cases if you want to use both (JSF+jQuery) then you are free to do so as Richfaces has a component for jQuery.

Here you will find most of the components that supports Ajax functionality.

Did you use jQuery with JSF. I did not quite get it from your post. I know Exadel studio's JSF support, but do they also provide jQuery support?

Yes they support jQuery also. Here you can have a look.

We were not able to use jQuery with JSFas the verion we were using did not have this plugin. There are a lot of problems if you try to use jQuery without the plugin.

I have recently done a small application with RichFaces. That comes with JQuery hooks and I had no toruble using it, nor integrating a JQuery plugin.

I cannot comment on other JSF frameworks.

I wanted to go for ICEFaces but now decided to do it with RichFaces. Thanks for all the support!
