I am new to JSF, checking related questions did not give me right answer.
I have 2 xhtml files. I specially delete all of items, like style, rendered, beans, etc. All the values displays good, but i cant make it update after pressing button.
1st of them named for example Description is a form with 3 tabs, each of them is a dataTable. Structure is a
<p:tabView id="tabs">
<p:tab id="first">
<h:form id="one">
<p:dataTable id="firstTable/>
</h:form>
</p:tab>
<p:tab id="second">
<h:form id="two">
<p:dataTable id="secondTable/>
</h:form>
</p:tab>
<p:tab id="third">
<h:form id="three">
<p:dataTable id="thirdTable/>
</h:form>
</p:tab>
2nd is a dialog, opened by some button in other component, here i can edit some inputs, and with commandButton "Save"
<h:form id="dialog">
<p:dataTable id="one">
<p:column headerText="FirstColumn">
<p:inputText onfocus="this.select()" id="newInput"
value="#{data['rmp']}"/>
</p:column>
</p:dataTable>
<p:commandButton id="save"
actionListener="#{dialogView.submit}"/>
</h:form>
After pressing "save" button i want my 2nd tab in first xhtml to update and display new value. It is only updates after i refresh the page manually.
I tried to add update="#([id$=':tabs:second'])" but it doesn't work right.
Please help me

I have a primefaces dataTable with several URLs as data. There is one URL per line. A line has a button. If you click it, a dialog is opened, containing a iframe with the website of the corresponding URL.
This is the (shortened) xhtml:
<p:dataTable id="transResult" rendered="#{not empty urlList}"
var="aUrl"
value="#{urlList}">
<p:column ...></p:column>
...
<p:column>
<p:commandButton id="urlBtn" value="#{aUrl}"
onclick="PF('showURL').show();"/>
<p:dialog id="urlDialog" widgetVar="showURL">
<h:outputLabel value="URL: #{aUrl}"/>
<iframe src="#{aUrl}"/>
</p:dialog>
</p:column>
</p:dataTable>
The table with the buttons is displayed correctly:
|url1|
|url2|
...
If I have a look at the hidden dialogs with firebug, the URLs are put correctly! Also the id's are generated corrctly:
transResult:0:urlDialog
transResult:1:urlDialog
...
Problem:
But when I click on a button, always the dialog with the last URL is openend.
Any idea why this goes wrong?
I found a solution that seems to work. The base is to have different widgetVar.
<p:dataTable id="transResult" rendered="#{not empty urlList}"
var="data"
value="#{urlList}">
<p:column ...></p:column>
...
<p:column>
<p:commandButton id="urlBtn" value="#{aUrl}"
onclick="PF('showURL#{data.id}').show();"/>
<p:dialog id="urlDialog" widgetVar="showURL#{data.id}">
<h:outputLabel value="URL: #{data.aUrl}"/>
<iframe src="#{data.aUrl}"/>
</p:dialog>
</p:column>
</p:dataTable>
So we have an ID per row which is also added to the widgetVar to make them different.
Note that with this solution everything is calculated when the table is created. So there is nothing "dynamic". But for my needs this is no problem.
I'm trying to open a new window from dataTable using primefaces. I've tried differents options:
h:commandLink
<h:form id="form" target="_blank">
<p:dataTable id="Table" var="var_row" value="#{bean.table}" sortBy="tableId" >
<p:column>
<h:commandLink action="#{bean.goToPage}" value="Open Page"
onblur="this.form.target='_self'">
<f:setPropertyActionListener value="#{var_row}" target="#{bean.rowSelected}" />
</h:commandLink>
</p:column>
</p:dataTable>
</h:form>
2.p:commandLInk
<h:form id="form" target="_blank">
<p:dataTable id="Table" var="var_row" value="#{bean.table}" sortBy="tableId" >
<p:column>
<p:commandLink action="#{bean.goToPage}" value="Open Page"
onblur="this.form.target='_self'"
process="#this" ajax="false" target="_blank">
<f:setPropertyActionListener value="#{var_row}" target="#{bean.rowSelected}" />
</p:commandLink>
</p:column>
</p:dataTable>
</h:form>
It works, but not correctly. I mean, I get the new page open, but the original page becomes useless, all methods in this pages are not invoked when you clicked on them.
Has anyone experimented this before? Any idea to solve this?
I tried and I still couldn't get a 'commandLink' to open in a new window while at the same time using 'setPropertyActionListener'. I think you have to modify the underlying Primefaces javascript to open in a new window (I didn't try that).
You can try passing a parameter argument.
I have some weird issue with datatable selection (most likely i'm doing something wrong).
Idea is simple - datatable with selection and a dialog to edit the records. The problem is that if i use <h:inputText> tag (or <p:inputText>) it appears to be blank, though the object in the backing bean (indicatorBean.indicator.code) contains data. Interestingly if i put <h:outputText> instead of input the data is shown.
here are contents of my body
<!-- language: xml -->
<h:body>
<h:form id="form">
<p:growl id="messages" showDetail="true"/>
<p:dataTable id="indicatorsTable" var="ind"
value="#{indicatorBean.indicators}"
selectionMode="single"
selection="#{indicatorBean.indicator}"
rowKey="#{ind.id}">
<p:column headerText="Name" style="width:125px">
#{ind.name}
</p:column>
<p:column headerText="Code" style="width:125px">
#{ind.code}
</p:column>
<f:facet name="footer">
<p:commandButton id="viewButton" value="View"
icon="ui-icon-search" update=":form:display"
oncomplete="indDialog.show()"/>
</f:facet>
</p:dataTable>
<p:dialog id="dialog" header="Indicator Detail"
widgetVar="indDialog" resizable="false"
width="400" showEffect="fade" hideEffect="fade">
<h:panelGrid id="display" columns="2" cellpadding="4">
<h:outputText value="Code:"/>
<!-- PROBLEM IS HERE -->
<h:inputText value="#{indicatorBean.indicator.code}"/>
<h:outputText value="Name:"/>
<h:outputText value="#{indicatorBean.indicator.name}"/>
</h:panelGrid>
<p:commandButton value="Save" onclick="indDialog.hide()"/>
<p:commandButton value="Cancel" onclick="indDialog.hide()"/>
</p:dialog>
</h:form>
</h:body>
Backing bean is nothing other that accessors.
Another thing i spotted is if i replace el expression in <h:inputtext> with a static text (like <h:inputText value="static text"/>), it is shown.
Here are some pictures:
Dialog with inputtext
Dialog with outputtext
Dialog with static text
primefaces 3.4
The problem as you seem to have already figured out is that you are placing the dialog itself inside of a form. This is an issue because of the way the jQuery dialog control works, which is the client side foundation of the Primefaces dialog. Essentially it will move DOM elements associated with the dialog elsewhere, possibly outside of the form that you intend to enclose it.
This problem can be easily solved by putting the dialog outside of the form, and putting a form inside of the dialog body instead.
<p:dialog id="dialogId" ...>
<h:form id="dlgForm">
....
</h:form>
</p:dialog>
In this way when jQuery UI moves the dialog control elsewhere in the DOM, the contents of that DOM, including the form come with it.
I'm using Primefaces 3.4 (also tried 3.3) and Mojarra 2.1.7. But I have a problem updating my dynamical tabs within a p:tabView.
I have 2 buttons which should add an additional tab. The first button is outside the p:tabView. When clicking this button, the backing bean is called, the p:tabView is updated, and the new tab is shown. But when I click the second button, which is inside a tab of that tabView, the backing bean is called, but the tabView is NOT updated.
This lack of updating occures only in dynamic tabs. When I modify the given example to have only one tab, and displaying a value which changes when clicking the buttons, the tabView is updated by both buttons, and the new Value is shown. So it is an problem only occuring in dynamic tabs.
Here is my code.
<f:view contentType="text/html">
<h:form>
<p:commandButton value="press me" action="#{idTestBean.addTab}" update=":ApplicationTab"/>
</h:form>
<p:tabView id="ApplicationTab" cache="false" dynamic="false" var="tab" value="#{idTestBean.tabList}">
<p:tab title="tab" closable="false" >
<p:panel>
<h:form>
<p:commandButton value="press me" action="#{idTestBean.addTab}" update=":ApplicationTab"/>
</h:form>
#{idTestBean.count}
</p:panel>
</p:tab>
</p:tabView>
</f:view>
The different tabs contains separate forms that needed to be submitted separate. therefore I had the approach of more than one form.
Well this must do the trick:
<f:view contentType="text/html">
<h:form>
<p:commandButton value="press me" action="#{idTestBean.addTab}" update="#form"/>
<p:tabView id="ApplicationTab" cache="false" dynamic="false" var="tab" value="#{idTestBean.tabList}">
<p:tab title="tab" closable="false" >
<p:panel>
<p:commandButton value="press me" action="#{idTestBean.addTab}" update="#form"/>
#{idTestBean.count}
</p:panel>
</p:tab>
</p:tabView>
</h:form>
</f:view>
Today i did the same problem too, I had a dynamic tabview, and inside tabs, there're some panels that needed to be updated when tab changes, so what i did was, i added the p:ajax on event TabChange, and in the update attribute, i added the form id and tabviewId like this:
:formID:tabViewID
and it worked at last.
Just so you know.
I need to fetch corresponding data into bean whenever some certain tab is selected from the tabview. For this I have been trying to use f:event with preRenderComponent but that doesnt help with desired.
How can I execute listener corresponding to the tab whenever a certain tab is selected in tabview.
<p:tabView dynamic="true" cache="false">
<p:tab title="People I'm following" >
<f:event type="preRenderComponent" listener="#{listRetriever.retrieveFollowies()}"/>
<ui:repeat value="#{listRetriever.list}" var="person">
#{person}<br/>
</ui:repeat>
</p:tab>
<p:tab title="People following me" >
<f:event type="preRenderComponent" listener="#{listRetriever.retrieveFollowers()}"/>
<ui:repeat value="#{listRetriever.list}" var="person">
#{person}<br/>
</ui:repeat>
</p:tab>
</p:tabView>
TabChangeEvent passes you the selected tab instance, live sample;
