The h:dataTable tag lets you manipulate tabular data.

• Creates an HTML table
• Can display other JSF components in tables cells
• Can manipulate look and feel with CSS classes
• Drawback: does not provide native support for sorting columns

Note that the Facelets tag ui:repeat along with ordinary HTML table tags can be used in place of h:dataTable. ui:repeat is more tedious to use but you can do more precise styling with it.
