Setting org.icefaces.render.auto to true causes ICEfaces to automatically apply DOM rendering to each page. If this is set to false, then DOM rendering and updating is turned off for the entire application.
<context-param>
<param-name>org.icefaces.render.auto</param-name>
<param-value>false</param-value>
</context-param>
This feature can also be controlled on a per-page basis using the <ice:config> tag and setting the desired attribute. To apply ICEfaces DOM rendering to to just those pages that should be rendered using ICEfaces Direct-2-DOM feature, set the context parameter_org.icefaces.render.auto_ to false and add the following tag to any pages that should be rendered using ICEfaces:
<icecore:config render="true">
See the documentation on the <ice:config> tag for additional information.
