JSF Validation Failed Notice

Here’s how I show a notice on a JSF 2 page indicating that the JSF 2 postback failed due to validation errors. The following facelet snippet is rendered only when validation fails: <h:outputtext styleclass="errorMessage globalMessage" value="Request not saved due to input errors" rendered="#{facesContext.validationFailed}" /> The user then knows they should look through the page to correct the individually marked validation failures.
