title: invoking a REST client from JSF
body: <p>I am building a java EE application that implements JSF as the frontend framework. The application needs to consume a RESTFul Service (which I own but hosted as a separate application).</p>
  
  <p>I have found some decent tutorials about implementing Restlet, however I am still missing the final leg. The user should be able to click a button and a POST is submitted by a local REST Client to the server and the response evaluated. I'd appreciate advice about how I can achieve this.</p>
