How to align items in a <h:panelGrid> to the right

The <h:panelGrid> renders a HTML table. You basically want to apply text-align: right; on every <td> element it renders. With the current code, easiest would be to apply the following:

#authenticate table td {
    text-align: right;
}

You can of course also be more specific, e.g. giving the <h:panelGrid> its own styleClass and defining a rule in CSS (which would be applied directly on the rendered HTML <table> element).

<h:panelGrid styleClass="className">

with

.className td {
    text-align: right;
}

You can also give each <td> element its own class by columnClasses attribute which accepts a commaseparated string of CSS classnames which are to be applied repeatedly on the <td> elements. If you want to apply the same class on every <td> element, just specify it once:

<h:panelGrid columnClasses="className">

with

.className {
    text-align: right;
}

As an extra hint: rightclick the webpage in webbrowser and choose View Source, then you'll understand better what JSF is all exactly generating.


actually in same form i used <p:panel> and got good result. looks like ;

<p:panel  styleClass="ui-panel-titlebar ui-widget-header ui-helper-clearfix ui-corner-all">
    <p:commandButton value="Add New Tab"
            actionListener="#{xxx.createNewTab}" process="@this"
            update="tabView" style="float:right !important;margin:0px 0px 3px 0px;" />
