p:textEditor discards text aligning (versions 8) - jsf

This problem might be related to the one I described earlier here:
PrimeFaces 7.0 <p:textEditor HTML-sanitizer discards text formatting, such as centering
but at least trying to switch off the HTML sanitizer in PrimeFaces 8 did not do the trick, the problem is still there. To reproduce it:
1.) Take the example from the PrimeFaces showcase, as it is shown here:
https://www.primefaces.org/showcase/ui/input/textEditor.xhtml
In case you use PrimeFaces 8.0, just augment the line
<p:textEditor widgetVar="editor1" value="#{editorViewTest.text}" height="300" style="margin-bottom:10px"/>
by the attribute secure="false" as follows:
<p:textEditor widgetVar="editor1" secure="false" value="#{editorViewTest.text}" height="300" style="margin-bottom:10px"/>
Write just a single word, i.e. Header and format it by both aligning it centrally and make it a large text. Click on the "Submit" button. The text that comes in the setter() method of the backing bean IS NOT CENTERED, but is only large.
To demonstrate:
1.) This is how the text is formatted in the editor:
2.) This is what I recieve in the debugger:
For comparison, this is my facelet:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"
xmlns:h="http://java.sun.com/jsf/html"
xmlns:f="http://java.sun.com/jsf/core"

<h:form>
<p:textEditor widgetVar="editor1" secure="false" value="#{editorViewTest.text}" height="300" style="margin-bottom:10px"/>
<p:commandButton value="Submit"/>
</h:form>
</h:body>
</html>
and this is the backing bean:
import javax.enterprise.context.RequestScoped;
import javax.inject.Named;
#Named("editorViewTest")
#RequestScoped
public class EditorView {
private String text;
private String text2;
public String getText() {
return text;
}
public void setText(String text) {
this.text = text;
}
public String getText2() {
return text2;
}
public void setText2(String text2) {
this.text2 = text2;
}
}

Getter method returns null when called from action listener [duplicate]

This question already has answers here:
How to choose the right bean scope?
(2 answers)
Closed 4 years ago.
I have an application with a p:selectOneMenu component. This component is used to determine what category of file is being uploaded so I can do some work to it when the file is uploaded.
I implemented the answer from this post and it seems to call my setter methods correctly for fileType. But once the file is submitted and the handleFileUpload method is called, the fileType getter method returns null.
For example, if I select Foo then I get the output
File type changed to: Foo
But when I hit the upload button I get the output
The file type selected is null
When I expect
The file type selected is Foo
What is causing the get method to return two different results and is there a way to fix this?

As pointed out by #Kukeltje the issue was that my bean was not properly scoped. Switching from RequestScoped to ViewScoped fixed the issue I was having.

Importing IceFaces crashes the webapplication

I would like to work with icefaces, but as soon as I import the libraries of icefaces, my webapplication crashes after clicking a button on the form which worked properly before the import.
What could go wrong?
The source Java:
package test,
import javax.faces.bean.ManagedBean;
#ManagedBean
public class Student {
private String firstName;
// create no-arg constructor
public Student() {
}
// define getter/setter methods
public String getFirstName() {

public void setFirstName(String firstName) {
this.firstName = firstName;
}

Bean:
import javax.faces.bean.ManagedBean;
import javax.faces.bean.SessionScoped;
#ManagedBean(name = "bean")
#SessionScoped
public class Controller {
private String text;
private String button = "Click";
public String getText() {
System.out.println(text);
return text;
}
public void setText(String text) {
this.text = text;
}
public String getButton() {
return button;
}
public void setButton(String button) {
this.button = button;
}
}
It doesnt seem like he cant find my bean, because the value i gave the button is shown correctly in the browser. But teh input doesnt work.
I have worked with jsf already and i never had problems with passing values through the bean. Another project of me is using the same method like here and it works. But in this case my inputs doesnt go to the bean. Help please.
You have to submit your form for the bean to take the value. Else the form is never sent.
So add an action to your command button which is the method that is gonna be called when the button is pressed.
<p:commandButton value="#{bean.button}"
style="margin-left:10px;margin-top:10px;" action="#{bean.submit}" />
Write in your bean
public void submit(){}
your method can contain anything you want.
There are nice jsf tutorial here those are the ones I used to start (I didn't finish though).

f:param value is returning null both with commandButton and also commandLink

How is this caused and how can I solve it? I am using jsf2.2 Mojarra 2.0.3.there are other sample page1.xhtml and page2.xhtml just for navigation with me
Thanks in advance
Look closer at the XML namespace prefix and the URI and compare with whatever is shown in a decent JSF book/tutorial/resource:
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"
xmlns:h="http://java.sun.com/jsf/html"
xmlns:f="http://java.sun.com/jsf/facelets">
Yes, the XML namespace URI for the f: prefix is wrong. You declared it to be the one of Facelets tags which have usually ui: prefix. This basically causes those tags to not be properly interpreted at all. It's being misinterpreted as an <ui:param> which has an entirely different meaning than the real <f:param>.
Fix the taglib URI. It needs to be http://java.sun.com/jsf/core. Here's the complete set:
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"
xmlns:f="http://java.sun.com/jsf/core"
xmlns:h="http://java.sun.com/jsf/html"
xmlns:ui="http://java.sun.com/jsf/facelets">

Our JSF wiki page - contains a Hello World
Unrelated to the concrete problem, Mojarra 2.0.3 is not JSF 2.2. It's JSF 2.0. And a rather old implementation too, over 5 years already. You can get latest Mojarra 2.2 (currently 2.2.11) at http://javaserverfaces.java.net. After that, you can change the domain in taglib URIs from java.sun.com to xmlns.jcp.org:
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"

Primefaces autocomplete not working and showing no exception

I am new to primefaces and I want to use autocomplete tag of primeface.So i folllowed this example.Here is my code
layout.xhtml
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"
xmlns:ui="http://java.sun.com/jsf/facelets"
xmlns:h="http://java.sun.com/jsf/html"
xmlns:f="http://java.sun.com/jsf/core"
xmlns:p="http://primefaces.org/ui">
<head>
<title>Title</title>
</head>
<body>
<h:form id="form">
<p:panel header="AutoComplete" toggleable="true" id="panel">
<h:panelGrid columns="2" cellpadding="5">
<h:outputLabel value="Simple :" for="acSimple" />
<p:autoComplete id="acSimple" value="#{autoCompleteBean.txt1}"
completeMethod="#{autoCompleteBean.complete}"/>
</h:panelGrid>
</p:panel>
</h:form>
</body>
</html>
AutoCompleteBean.java
import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.List;
import javax.faces.bean.ManagedBean;
import javax.faces.bean.RequestScoped;
#ManagedBean(name="autoCompleteBean")
#RequestScoped
public class AutoCompleteBean {
private String txt1;
public List<String> complete(String query) {
List<String> results = new ArrayList<String>();
for (int i = 0; i < 10; i++) {
results.add(query + i);
}
return results;
}
public String getTxt1() {
return txt1;
}
public void setTxt1(String txt1) {
this.txt1 = txt1;
}
}
so layout.xhtml renders fine and show me a text field but after then it don't work and not showing autocomplete functionality.Is there something missing? or what would be the problemThanks
The xhtml you have posted is using standard html tags for head and body so it may not be correctly interpreting the Javascript used to call the complete method in the bean.
Try using h:head and h:body.
The tip-off may show up in your output window. Check for something like:
sourceId=null[severity=(ERROR 2), summary=(One or more resources have the target of 'head', but no 'head' component has been defined within the view.), detail=(One or more resources have the target of 'head', but no 'head' component has been defined within the view.)]
See the Stack Overflow discussion on h:head in primefaces: What's the difference between <h:head> and <head> in Java Facelets?
You should always use h:head and h:body when you are writing facelets. The reason is that in order for the auto complete to work javascript is required and if you don't include h:head jsf will not be able to put the javascript correctly.
I had a similar problem, however in my case the problem was resolved when I removed a p tag which was surrounding the p:autocomplete tag.
The following code will not throw an error message, but the autoselect dropdown menu won't appear. After removing the <p></p> everything works fine.
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"
xmlns:p="http://primefaces.org/ui"
xmlns:f="http://xmlns.jcp.org/jsf/core"
xmlns:h="http://xmlns.jcp.org/jsf/html">
<h:head>
</h:head>
<h:body>
<h:form>
<p>
<p:autoComplete id="place" value="#{addPlaceBean.place}"
completeMethod="#{autoCompletePlace.completePlace}" var="place"
itemLabel="#{place.city}, #{place.country}"
itemValue="#{place}" converter="placeConverter">
</p:autoComplete>
</p>
</h:form>
</h:body>
</html>
