## Creating the Component with a Page Tag

To create the simplest variant on a page use the following syntax:

    <f:view>
         <a4j:portlet>
    	        ...
    	   </a4j:portlet>
    </f:view>

## Creating the Component Dynamically Using Java

    import org.ajax4jsf.component.html.HtmlPortlet;
    ...
    HtmlPortlet myPortlet = new HtmlPortlet();
    ...

## Key attributes and ways of usage

The main component purpose is realization of possibility to create several instances the same portlet on one page. But clientId of elements should be different for each window. In that case namespace is used for each portlet. The <a4j:portlet> `implemets NaimingContainer` interface and adds namespace to all componets on a page. All portlet content should be wrapped by <a4j:portlet> for resolving problems mentioned before.
