#### 6.11.9.3. Details of Usage

<rich:inputNumberSpinner> is used to facilitate your data input with rich UI Controls.

Here is the simplest variant of spinner definition with "minValue" , "maxValue" and "step" (on default is "1") attributes, which define the beginning and the end of numerical area and a spinner step.

Example:

    ...

    <rich:inputNumberSpinner minValue="1" maxValue="100"/>

    ...

It generates on a page:

Figure 6.163. Generated <rich:inputNumberSpinner>

There are also several attributes to define functionality peculiarities:

- "cycled" if the attribute is "true" after the current value reaches the border value it's be reversed to another border value after next increasing/decreasing. In other case possibilities of next increasing/decreasing are locked

- "disabled" is an attribute that defines whether a component is active on a page

- "enableManualInput" is an attribute that defines whether a keyboard input is possible or only UI controls could be used

Moreover, to add e.g. some JavaScript effects, events defined on it are used

- "onchange"

- "onmouseover"

- "onclick"

- "onfocus"

- "onmouseout"

- etc.

The "label" attribute is a generic attribute. The "label" attribute provides an association between a component, and the message that the component (indirectly) produced. This attribute defines the parameters of localized error and informational messages that occur as a result of conversion, validation, or other application actions during the request processing lifecycle. With the help of this attribute you can replace the last parameter substitution token shown in the messages. For example, {1} for `"DoubleRangeValidator.MAXIMUM"` , {2} for `"ShortConverter.SHORT"` .
