Currently, i am dealing with rich:tabPanel in my web application based on JSF 2.0. I encounter a very strange problem, which is related to my richface component. Basically, i print some same stuff on each panel (here, it is a schedule table of a show, tab contains the day and content of tab contains the differents hours ).
Consequently, i have something like that:
<rich:tabPanel>
<c:forEach items="#{show}" var="hour" ...>
<rich:tab>
<a4j:commandLink ...>
<a4j:param value="hour.something" assignTo="#{bean.method}" />
</a4j:commandLink>
</ ..... >
When i click on the first commandlink, when my webpage is displayed, it's ok. But when i choose an other tab, and i click on the commandlink, the "bean.method" is not call. I need to click a second time to make the call of the function.
Finally, when i put the tabPanel as "switchtype=server", it works very well (without clicking 2 times).
But that's not the purpose, i want to use the client mode. I see that on JIRA of richfaces v3, this problem has been solved JIRA JBoss. But there is no more information (except a comment but it's not working).
If anyone can help, it would be great.
Regards,
The problem is you are using nested forms(form within form). This is not recommended in JSF
. Even in HTML
it is invalid. Remove one form
and it will work.
