               boolean isNew)

Default implementation renders the specified value inside the first text node found below the specified content element.

Parameters:

label - the target label.

value - the value to render.

elem - the DOM element to render the value inside. This element is a hint, if provided, should be obtained by calling ElementGroup.getParentElement().

isNew - true if this is the first time the markup is rendered. Default implementation ignores this parameter.

unrenderLabel

void unrenderLabel(ElementLabel label,
                 org.w3c.dom.Element elem)

Unrenders the label markup. This method is called before the markup is removed.

Default implementation does nothing.

Parameters:

label - the target label.

elem - the DOM element used to render the label. This element is a hint, if provided, should be obtained by calling ElementGroup.getParentElement()>.
