I have form inside dialog and I need to update it when user click button. Button is for showing new fields in this form. Fields are not rendered by default in dialog(render="#{gettForBoolean}").
When I am trying to use RequestContext.getCurrentInstance().update(formID); in backing bean and always all data are gone.
Problem solved. Normal input is not saving to variable when writing, but it can be done by ajax: <p:ajax event="keyup" process="#widgetVar(inputID)"/>
The process attribute avoid you loosing data in AJAX calls:
<p:ajax update="formId" actionListener="#{bean.method}" />

I have a JSF/PrimeFaces form page set up to edit some configuration details. At the bottom are Submit and Cancel buttons implemented as CommandButton. The Cancel button looks like this:
<p:commandButton
action="priorPage.xhtml?faces-redirect=true"
value="Cancel" />
The problem is that the view bean still winds up doing more processing on the data that's been entered into the form than I'd like. It isn't updating anything in the database, but if (say) I enter a string into a field that's looking for a numeric in the bean, it still produces errors.
Part of my solution is, of course, to get the bean to gracefully handle that sort of bad data, and I'm working on it. But I'd also like to tweak that button so that it just takes the user to the prior page. Is there some attribute I can set that will prevent the form from being processed at all?
The <p:commandButton> submits the form. You don't want to submit the form. You should then not use the <p:commandButton>, but just <p:button>.
<p:button value="Cancel" outcome="priorPage.xhtml" />

I currently have a giant ui:repeat. Within this ui:repeat, some of the repeated objects have a url to a popup image associated with them. When someone clicks display under that particular object, I need the url to popup in a p:dialog.
<ui:repeat var="thing" value="#{bean.thingList}">
<p:commandLink value="details" onclick="miniImage.show();"
update=":#{p:component('chart')}"
action="#{bean.setCurrentImg(thing.imageUrl)}"
rendered="#{thing.includeImage}">
</p:commandLink>
</ui:repeat>
and at the bottom of the page:
<p:dialog id="chart" widgetVar="miniImage" >
<h:graphicImage value="#{bean.currentImg}"/>
</p:dialog>
And in the backing bean I tried using a simple setter and getter for currentImg.
I am a bit confused on this now and would like to accomplish this without having to submit the entire form as well. Any help is greatly appreciated.
If you're using PrimeFaces 3.3 or newer, you could just add partialSubmit="true" to the command component. You can then control the to-be-processed components in process attribute. In this particular case, just the current component (the command component itself) is sufficient, thus so process="#this":
<p:commandLink ... process="#this" partialSubmit="true" />
This way only the request parameters which are really necessary for the process will be sent.
Unrelated to the concrete problem, I suggest to use oncomplete instead of onclick to open the dialog. Otherwise the dialog is opened before update takes place and may cause poor user experience as the enduser would see the image instantly changing.

I have a form, it contains username and password etc... if i gave any wrong value the validation will fail. next if i see the form na that previously given values are coming in the input fields.. i cleared the bean values also. but the input fields are not yet cleared.
i have cleared the input fields using the following link 1st step.
https://cwiki.apache.org/MYFACES/clear-input-components.html
this is working but what the problem is this is working only in <rich:datatable> 1st page.
if i have navigate to second page and next pages and all that Popup panel itself not opening.
i am using the jsf version 2.0,
Please provide a good solution.
Thanks,
You can add OmniFaces Library to your project and use their ResetInputAjaxActionListener
Like this
<h:commandButton value="Update" action="#{bean.update}">
<f:ajax execute="#this" render="#form" />
<f:actionListener type="org.omnifaces.eventlistener.ResetInputAjaxActionListener" />
</h:commandButton>

Are you using session scope ? Change it to request scope. Otherwise, add your xhtml page and bean class.
I have a JSF page that includes a tree form tag which is rendered depending on some bean property. There are two buttons for next and previous page. I want to skip form validation on the button which goes to the previous page.
I tried the following ways to disable the validation:
Set h:commandButton immediate="true"
Change button by a4j:commandButton ajaxSingle="true" rerender="someparts"
It does not work. Why does the navigation fail when I want to skip validation?
immediate="true" does skip the validation. Make sure you have redeployed successfully, and the there aren't any errors.
I solve problem using a4j:commandButton ajaxSingle="true" reRender=":outhercomponent:formconteningcomponent:component"
reRender needs absolute path to component even if component id unique
