With input components, a text or a date can be entered. Input components should always use the label attribute.
label
<tc:in label="Input" value="Some Text"/>
<tc:in label="Language"> <tc:suggest query="#{suggestController.query}"> <tc:selectItems value="#{suggestController.solarObjects}" var="name" itemValue="#{name}"/> </tc:suggest> </tc:in>
<tc:textarea label="Text Area" value="Some Text"/>
<tc:date label="Date" value="2015-12-21"/>
