apex:componentBody
This tag allows a custom component author to define a location where a user can insert content into the custom component. This is especially useful for generating custom iteration components. This component is valid only within an <apex:component> tag, and only a single definition per custom component is allowed.
Simple Example
1<!-- Page: -->
2<apex:page>
3 <apex:outputText value="(page) This is before the custom component"/><br/>
4 <c:bodyExample>
5 <apex:outputText value="(page) This is between the custom component" /> <br/>
6 </c:bodyExample>
7 <apex:outputText value="(page) This is after the custom component"/><br/>
8</apex:page>
