rich:message and h:message, should they both work?

[julian]

I am trying to output messages placed in the MessageContext from a Java bean called by my flow, but the messages are only rendered in my XHTML view if I use a rich:messages tag. Should I be able to utilize the h:messages tag or is this the correct behavior? If it is a bug, I am more than happy to file a ticket.

Thanks.

you need a placeholder like a4j:outputpanel to display messages in h:message. h: message cannot be displayed without placeholders.you should be able to view messages usinh h:message if you place it within a4j:outputpanel tag.
