JSF & object tag

Question

Hi I'm looking for input on this.
I'm trying to figure out how to render a object tag in JSF with dynamic parameter values tied to the backing bean.
The only way i can think of possibly doing it is by creating hidden fields and tying those hidden fields to the backing bean and then using the values of those hidden fields somehow as the value for my parameter tags
The object i am trying to create is needed a for a third party piece of software. It looks like this:
  <object id="activeXPlugIn" style="width:100%; height:100%"
      codeBase="123456"
      classid="123456">
    <param name="VALUE1" value="/test/test.xml"/>
  </object>The problem i have is if i use the verbatim tag from what i understand then i can't use any JSF faces tags like the f:param inside it in order to tie the param values to the backing bean.
Any thoughts or suggestion please? Thanks in advance.

You can just use f:verbatim. It's a misunderstanding that f:param would be applicable on plain HTML elements.
Do for example:<f:verbatim>
    <object id="foo">
        <param name="value1" value="</f:verbatim><h:outputText value="#{myBean.value1}" /><f:verbatim>">
    </object>
</f:verbatim>
