    <title>Creating the Component with a Page Tag</title>
    <para>Here is a simple example as it could be used on a page:</para>

    <para>
      <emphasis role="bold">Example:</emphasis>
    </para>
    <programlisting role="XML"><![CDATA[...
     <rich:dataTable value="#{capitalsBean.capitals}" var="capitals">
        <rich:column>
            ...
        </rich:column>
        <rich:subTable value=#{capitals.details} var="detail">
            <rich:column>
                ...
            </rich:column>
        </rich:subTable>
    </rich:dataTable>

    <title>Creating the Component Dynamically Using Java</title>

    <para>
      <emphasis role="bold">Example:</emphasis>
    </para>
    <programlisting role="JAVA"><![CDATA[import org.richfaces.component.html.HtmlSubTable;
...
HtmlSubTable mySubTable = new HtmlSubTable();
...
]]></programlisting>
  </section>
  <section>
    <title>Details of Usage</title>

    <para>The <emphasis role="bold">
        <property>&lt;rich:subTable&gt;</property>
      </emphasis> component is similar to the <emphasis role="bold">
        <property>&lt;h:dataTable&gt;</property>
      </emphasis> one, except Ajax support and skinnability. One more difference is that the
      component doesn&apos;t add the wrapping <emphasis role="bold">
        <property>&lt;table&gt;</property>
      </emphasis> and <emphasis role="bold">
        <property>&lt;tbody&gt;</property>
      </emphasis> tags. Ajax support is possible, because the component was created basing on the
        <emphasis role="bold">
        <property>&lt;a4j:repeat&gt;</property>
      </emphasis> component and as a result it could be partially updated with Ajax. <emphasis>
        <property>&quot;ajaxKeys&quot;</property>
      </emphasis> attribute allows to define row keys that is updated after an Ajax request.</para>

    <para>Here is an example:</para>
    
    <para>
      <emphasis role="bold">Example:</emphasis>
    </para>
    
    <programlisting role="XML"><![CDATA[...
    <rich:dataTable value="#{capitalsBean.capitals}" var="capitals">
        <rich:column>
            ...
        </rich:column>
        <rich:subTable value="#{capitals.details}" var="detail" ajaxKeys="#{bean.ajaxSet}" binding="#{bean.subtable}" id="subtable">
            <rich:column>
                ...
            </rich:column>
        </rich:subTable>
    </rich:dataTable>
...
    <a4j:commandButton action="#{tableBean.action}" reRender="subtable"/>
...
]]></programlisting>
    <para> In the example <emphasis>
        <property>&quot;reRender&quot;</property>
      </emphasis> attribute contains value of <emphasis>
        <property>&quot;id&quot;</property>
      </emphasis> attribute for <emphasis role="bold">
        <property>&lt;rich:subTable&gt;</property>
      </emphasis> component. As a result the component is updated after an Ajax request.</para>

    <para>The component allows to use <emphasis>
        <property>&quot;header&quot;</property>
      </emphasis> and <emphasis>
        <property>&quot;footer&quot;</property>
      </emphasis> facets for output. See an example for <emphasis role="bold">
        <property>&lt;rich:dataTable&gt;</property>
      </emphasis>

  <section>
    <title>Look-and-Feel Customization</title>

    <para>For skinnability implementation, the components use a <emphasis>
        <property>style class redefinition method.</property>

        <property>skin parameters.</property>

    <para>In order to redefine styles for all <emphasis role="bold">
