In addition to using the Faces Client Components, you can use Client Data with some of the Faces components. The following Faces Components can use Client Data:

• Image
• Input
• Input - Text Area
• Input - Password
• Radio Button Group
• Check Box
• Check Box Group
• List Box - Single Select
• List Box - Multiple Select
• Combo Box
• Output

Using Client Data with these components is similar to using Page Data. To use Client Data with these controls, drag a Client Data object property from the Client Data view onto the component. You create Client Data from Page Data. In the Client Data view, right-click, and select New > Client Data. When the Client Data is created, a Client Data object is displayed in the Client Data view. The Client Data object will have the same attributes as the Page Data object.

For the SelectOne and SelectMany components: Radio Button Group, Check Box Group, List Box - Single Select, List Box - Multiple Select and Combo Box, the component must be bound to Client Data, but the list of choices must come from the server side data.

Additionally, the list of choices must be a list of computed choices. A list of literal choices will not work. The list of computed choices must be part of the Client Data. A list of computed choices primed from a Websphere Data Object or Service Data Object will not work.
