To make a textfield programmatically you can use something like this:
    public CoreOutputText createOutputText(String text) {
        CoreOutputText label = (CoreOutputText)FacesContext.
                getCurrentInstance().getApplication().
                createComponent(CoreOutputText.COMPONENT_TYPE);
        label.setValue(text);
        //System.out.println("label id = " +label.getId()); //TEMP
        return label;
    }I put that method in a UIComponentFactory class. To add the created OutputText to your PanelPage for instance you do:
CoreOutputText output = UIComponentFactory.getInstance().createOutputText();
getPanelPage().getChildren().add(output);Like this you add the output text to the the children of the panelpage.
To remove the output again you can use getPanelPage().getChildren().remove(output);
