JSF2.0, value="#" means?

I have been trying to write a component control in a <rich:dataTable>. I chose <h:outputLink> to wrap it, inside the data table. I found something like this. 

<h:outputLink id="openLink" value="#">

What does value="#" mean?

It's a link to the same page. It will refresh the page in a NON-Ajax mode.

The outpulink tag produces a very simple HTML tag with the href value set to the value of the...'value' attribute. In the asker example it will produce:

<a id="openLink" href="#">
.
.
.
</a>

I added the tag closure even if the corresponding was missing in the OP question.
