How to write an HTML file in a portlet with JSF

I can do it with a plain JSP and <jsp:useBean; but I need to put a back button and I cannot do that in a portlet (mangling). In NetBeans, I have to use a visual JSF with woodstock tags, but ><jsp:useBean is not working. I need to know what kind of tag I can use.

Your help will be greatly appreciated,

A portlet is very similar to a regular servlet/JSP application. So, your normal JSP/Servlet skills will work. There is no problem with the usebean tag in a JSP.

If you need to firm up your fundamentals, check out my siganture links for some easy to follow Portlet tutorials.

Thank you Cameron for your prompt reply. The problem is that I am using a NetBeans "Visual Web JSF Portlet Page". It doe3sn{t appear to be a JSP and the code doesn´t work:

<jsp:root version="2.1" xmlns:f="http://java.sun.com/jsf/core" xmlns:h="http://java.sun.com/jsf/html" xmlns:jsp="http://java.sun.com/JSP/Page" xmlns:webuijsf="http://www.sun.com/webui/webuijsf" xmlns:p="http://java.sun.com/jsf/portlet/components">
    <jsp:directive.page contentType="text/html;charset=UTF-8" pageEncoding="UTF-8"/>
    <f:view>
        <p:portletPage>
            <div style="-rave-layout: grid; position: relative; height: 400px; width: 400px;">
                <webuijsf:themeLinks binding="#{ShowStatistics.themeLinks1}" id="themeLinks1" webuiAll="true" parseOnLoad="false"/>
                <webuijsf:button actionExpression="#{ShowStatistics.button1_action}" id="button1" style="left: 263px; top: 216px; position: absolute" text="Atrás"/>
                <jsp:useBean id="stats" scope="page" class="webstatistics.StatisticsPortlet" />
                <jsp:getProperty name="stats" property="HTML" />
                <webuijsf:form binding="#{ShowStatistics.form1}" id="form1">
                </webuijsf:form>
            </div>
        </p:portletPage>
    </f:view>
</jsp:root>

I cannot use a plain JSP because I need a back button and I don{t know how to do that in a portlet; the usual locations like caller.jsp don{t work because of name mangling.
