How to show facescontext messages not as popup,but in the same scren on top

Question

Hi,
I am a newbie, so any help would be sincerely appreciated. I am using jdeveloper 11g 11.1.1.3 . I am adding FacesMessages to the FacesContext object based on a custom logic. These messages can be an error message or it can be a success message.
By default these messages are shown as a popup, but i dont want these messages as popup. Rather i want them to displayed in the same screen on top as output text.
Pls guide me on how can i achieve this.

use <af:messages> tag in your page with the attribute property inline="true"
<af:messages
inline="true"
...../>
Sample:
<f:view>
<af:document id="d1">
<af:messages id="m1" inline="true"/>
<af:form id="f1">
<af:inputText label="Label 1" id="it1" required="true"
showRequired="true"
requiredMessageDetail="Enter the value (Label1 is mandatory)"></af:inputText>
<af:inputText label="Label 2" id="it2" required="true"
showRequired="true"
requiredMessageDetail="Enter the value (Label2 is mandatory)"></af:inputText>
<af:commandButton text="Submit" id="cb1"/>
</af:form>
</af:document>
</f:view>For more details, look into this blog entry:
