If you didnt have a head tag you will get that error.

Primefaces requires a head tag to work.

See #2 on their faq

http://primefaces.org/faq.html

Solution 2

This was a minor defect and fixed in 3.2. final;

Solution 3

This will also happen if you are not allowing access to

${webapp}/javax.faces.resources/**

Check your security XML configuration.

The JavaScript error that Primefaces is not defined.

Solution 4

try this... (if this does not work its probably a bug - open a ticket on issue tracker...)

<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"  
    xmlns:h="http://java.sun.com/jsf/html"  
    xmlns:f="http://java.sun.com/jsf/core"  
    xmlns:p="http://primefaces.org/ui">  

    <h:head>  

    </h:head>  

    <h:body>  
     <h:form>
      <h:commandButton id="btn" value="Print">
        <p:printer target="output" />
      </h:commandButton>
      <h:outputText id="output" value="PrimeFaces Rocks!" />

      <h:outputLink id="lnk" value="#">
          <p:printer target="image" />
          <h:outputText value="Print Image" />
      </h:outputLink>
      <p:graphicImage id="image" value="/images/nature1.jpg" />

      </h:form>   
    </h:body>  
</html>

listen... primefaces are using the jqprint jquery plugin.... You might be better try use it directly while waiting for a official primefaces response...

You need to add the PrimeFaces namespace.

xmlns:p="http://primefaces.org/ui"

Have a look at the PrimeFaces Getting Started guide.

I am trying to print using the PrimeFaces printer functionality. I have created a new GlassFish 3 Java EE project and added the PrimeFaces 3.1.1 .jar file.

The code I am using currently is as follows:

<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" 
      xmlns:h="http://java.sun.com/jsf/html"
      xmlns:p="http://primefaces.org/ui">

  <h:head>
    <title>Facelet Title</title>
  </h:head>
  <h:body>
    <h:form>
      <h:outputText id="a" value="AA" />
      <h:commandLink id="btn" value="Print">
        <p:printer target="a" />
      </h:commandLink>
    </h:form>
  </h:body>
</html>

Unfortunately, the print function isn't working. Instead, the FireBug console shows me the following error:
