The example I saw on the myfaces website had exactly what I entered below
that I was having problems with. Is the documentation incorrect?
Sounds like it may be
Also does this mean that my strings must be defined/declared in the backing
bean and not in the xhtml?
Yes, the entire purpose of data list is to iterate over a java collection
Is there a way to have the messages in the XHTML? With this solution I must
provide the messages in the backing bean only.
Messages? I presume you mean the value. The value must come from EL,
that is the entire purpose of data list (just like datatable). If you
want an order list of components just do this:
<ol>
<li><h:outputText value="option 1" /></li>
<li><h:outputText value="option 2" /></li>
</ol>
