PrimeFaces BlockUI Example

April 15, 2014 //  by Amr Mohammed//  Leave a Comment

Primefaces BlockUI component is used to block interactivity of JSF components with optional Ajax integration. BlockUI requires trigger and block attributes to be defined. With the special ajax integration, ajax requests whose source are the trigger components will block the UI onstart and unblock oncomplete. When you submit the request to the server, the page interaction will be blocked and can display the progress of the server response. This is very useful in the modern web applications.
