I have a single page application written in JSF - PrimeFaces.
There are a couple of dialogs that are displayed correctly at the begining.
But after clicking:
<p:menuitem value="Logout" update="#all" action="#{loginBean.logout}"/>
the dialogs don't open correctly.
Maybe is is possible for you to make an update elements list, for example like:
update=":a:b,:c,:d:e:f".
Many people complains when try to use "#all".
you can also use, its like to show dialog force fully
<p:dialog widgetVar="statusDialog" ....... />
and use onClick = "PF('statusDialog').show();"

In a html page I have a h:commandButton that I want to make it to work in combination with a h:selectBooleanCheckbox, so every time I press the button the checkbox will be checked and otherwise.
Is it possible to do that directly in the html, and not in the java code behind it?
<h:commandButton value="#{userBean.buttonText()}" action="#{userBean.changeOutput()}"/>
<h:panelGrid columns="4" rendered="#{userBean.details}" styleClass="clicked" >
<h:outputText .... />
<h:outputText ..../>
</h:panelGrid>`
If you are using JSF 2, you have to update the area that include your checkbox, using f:ajax tag.
You can find a lot of examples here in stackoverflow, look this example just hide/show a div: After showing / hiding a JSF element with AJAX how to hide the triggering element?
Hope it helps.
I'm working with JSF and PrimeFaces, and I can't handle the following situation:
I have a dialog, and I placed a dataTable on it. In one of the cells of the table I would like to display given data in 3 different ways, and I'd like to switch between them. So far I managed to switch between these rendering types via commandLink, but my problem is that when I click on one of the 3 links, the dialog closes! Can I update the content of the dialog, and be able to keep it open the same time? (I'm updating which render type to use via myMethod)
my commandLink looks like this:
<p:commandLink id="id" update=":myForm:myDialog" ajax="false"
action="#{myBean.myMethod}" oncomplete="dialog.show()">
If i don't use the ajax=false attribute, the method is not called, and I also tried imediate=true, but that's not it either.
You need to define an p:outputPanel inside your dialog and update the outputpanel, not the dialog itself (that's why your dialog closes):
<p:dialog id="myDialog" ...>
<p:outputPanel id="myOutputPanel">
... your dialog content goes here
</p>
</p:dialog>
and change your commandlink
<p:commandLink id="id" update=":myForm:myDialog:myOutputPanel" ajax="true"
action="#{myBean.myMethod}" oncomplete="dialog.show()">
Regarding the oncomplete="dialog.show()" - I'm not entirely sure if you need that. A precise answer can be given if you provide more code regarding your table and code.
I had the same problem, and solution is to update a form instead of dialog. For example:
<p:dialog id="id_dialog" ...>
<h:form id="id_form">
... content
</h>
</p:dialog>
and commandLink:
<p:commandLink update=":id_form" process="#all" ...>
This worked for me!
I am having a problem with my JSF project, where I am using PrimeFaces Mobile. This page has several pm:views
I have a list of radio buttons, which looks like this:
<p:selectOneRadio value="#{bean.currentElement}" converter="omnifaces.SelectItemsConverter"
onchange="submit()"
valueChangeListener="#{bean.elementChanged}">
<f:selectItems value="#{bean.currentItem.elements}" var="element"
itemLabel="#{element.elementName}" itemValue="#{element}" />
</p:selectOneRadio>
My valueChangeListener looks like this:
public void elementChanged(ValueChangeEvent e) {
currentElement = (Element) e.getNewValue();
System.out.println(getCurrentElement().getElementName());
}
The problem is, whenever I click on a radio button element, my page completely reloads to the start view, which has to do with the onchange="submit()". I have also tried f:ajax elements, but this doesn't seems to be working with my radio buttons, because I can't click them when I use this.
Is there a possiblty to just submit my current form or pm:view (without the f:ajax)?
PS: I have also tried exactly this on a single PrimeFaces Mobile page, which completely worked, since the application just consisted of one page.
When using PrimeFaces components, you should be using <p:ajax> instead of <f:ajax>. Just get rid of the onchange="submit()". This indeed invokes a synchronous (non-ajax) form submit which totally explains the page reload. You also need to replace valueChangeListener by <p:ajax listener>. The valueChangeListener is the wrong tool for the job whereby you're merely interested in invoking a JSF action method when the newly selected value is being set.
All in all, the rewrite should look like this:
<p:selectOneRadio value="#{bean.currentElement}" converter="omnifaces.SelectItemsConverter">
<f:selectItems value="#{bean.currentItem.elements}" var="element"
itemLabel="#{element.elementName}" itemValue="#{element}" />
<p:ajax listener="#{bean.elementChanged}" />
</p:selectOneRadio>
Don't forget to remove the ValueChangeEvent argument from the elementChanged() method. In order to access the selected value, just access the currentElement property directly.

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 writed an ajax request for any data. But the data don't work with h:inputHidden.
I think it's a bug of Primefaces.
But I don't know how to get the data now.
code:
<h:inputHidden id="buttonData" value="#{buttonDataBean.buttonData}" />
...
<p:commandButton id="getData" action="#{buttonAction.getButtonData}" update="buttonData" />
When I click the commandButton, the value of don't work.
But if I use the h:outputText, it worked.
My requirement:
Before click the commandButton, I have create any html buttons dynamically. I want to click the commandButton and update the name and position of html buttons. So that I must get any data and update the html buttons with Javascript.
how could I do about it?
If I want to use the JavaScript to get the ajax data, how to do it. I see the document and find two method: jsf.ajax.request() and Primefaces.ajax.AjaxRequest(). But I don't know how to use the two method. for example: Primefaces.ajax.AjaxRequest("test.xhtml",,). The "test.xhtml" how to request the method testMethod of TestAction?
use firebug to inspect html code. you can see new value
<h:form id="form">
<h:inputHidden id="buttonData" value="#{buttonDataBean.buttonData}" />
<p:commandButton id="getData" value="button"
action="#{buttonDataBean.buttonAction}" update="buttonData" />
</h:form>
If your problem does not get solved with primefaces ajax, you can use the native ajax provided by jsf have a look at it.It works, i have done many such things with it.
Instead of using a hidden input you could take advantage of JSF and use a f:param or f:attribute.
