As it was mentioned above this component returns its value as the value of the "src" attribute passing it to the getResourceUR() method of the ViewHandler for this application, and passing the result through the encodeResourceURL() method of the ExternalContext.

It means that the Context is inserts automatically to the link. And calls like resource:// is properly handled.

Except this - you may be free to put your script links right from the child page while using facelets templates .
