Unable to find facet named 'header' in parent composite component - jsf

I have implemented a composite component in JSF using primefaces.
<ui:component ...>
<cc:interface>
<cc:facet name="header"/> ...
<cc:interface>
<cc:implementation>
<p:dataTable>
<f:facet name="header">
<c:choose>
<c:when test="#{empty cc.attrs.metadata.headerText}">
<cc:insertFacet name="header" required="true"/>
</c:when>
<c:otherwise>
#{cc.attrs.headerText}
</c:otherwise>
</c:choose>
</f:facet> ...
</dataTable>
</cc:implementation>
When I use it in a normal page it works fine as expected rendering the datatable.
<ui:composition>
<nav:dataTable/>
<f:facet name="header">
<h:outputText value="headerText" />
</f:facet>
</ui:composition>
But when I use it inside a dialog which uses the above composite component, it throws
component.xhtml #28,54
Unable to find facet named 'header' in parent
composite component with id 'j_idt129'
I am making a ajax call to invoke this dialog on click of a link. The dialog comes in different shape and throwing this error in console. Has anyone faced it ? Any help is really appreciable.

cc:insertFacet inserts the whole f:facet tag, so you shouldn't wrap it into another f:facet tag within the composite implementation. As you are writing a custom p:dataTable I think it's easier to overwrite the already existing header facelet as an interface declaration and conditionally render it using JSTL utilities:
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"
xmlns:composite="http://java.sun.com/jsf/composite"
xmlns:h="http://java.sun.com/jsf/html"
xmlns:p="http://primefaces.org/ui"
xmlns:f="http://java.sun.com/jsf/core"
xmlns:ui="http://java.sun.com/jsf/facelets"
xmlns:c="http://java.sun.com/jsp/jstl/core">
<h:body>
<composite:interface>
<composite:facet name="header" />
<composite:attribute name="title" />
</composite:interface>
<composite:implementation>
<p:dataTable>
<!-- If the facet is given at parent, insert it.
Otherwise, provide the title given by the attribute -->
<c:choose>
<c:when test="#{not empty cc.facets.header}">
<composite:insertFacet name="header" />
</c:when>
<c:otherwise>
<f:facet name="header">
#{cc.attrs.title}
</f:facet>
</c:otherwise>
</c:choose>
<p:column headerText="column" />
</p:dataTable>
</composite:implementation>
</h:body>
</html>
Using it as:
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"
xmlns:f="http://java.sun.com/jsf/core"
xmlns:ui="http://java.sun.com/jsf/facelets"
xmlns:h="http://java.sun.com/jsf/html"
xmlns:p="http://primefaces.org/ui"
xmlns:comp="http://java.sun.com/jsf/composite/comp">
<f:view>
<h:head />
<h:body>
<h:form>
<comp:myTable title="header">
<f:facet name="header">
<h:outputText value="text" />
</f:facet>
</comp:myTable>
<comp:myTable title="Custom header" />
<p:commandButton type="button" onclick="dialog.show()"
value="show in dialog" />
<p:dialog widgetVar="dialog">
<comp:myTable title="header">
<f:facet name="header">
<h:outputText value="text" />
</f:facet>
</comp:myTable>
</p:dialog>
</h:form>
</h:body>
</f:view>

Some UI parts do not respond

Some, but not all UI Components are not responding.

Everything renders nicely but in this case only the button of the form is responding will says is fired. If I enlarge the page in the browser by changing the zoom the SelectOneMenu for the day is responding too, but never the the SelectOneMenu for the week. If I remove the panelGrid the form works as intended.
this is one example of the problem. On another page are tabs generatered by a script, in most cases 12-14. Often the last two or three are not responding/firing and there is no mouseover/hiver response. What really fiddles me is that is not always the case.

Why is a p:panelGrid's p:row's rendered attribute ignored and not ignored in identical p:dialogs when ui:included?

The first dialog myDialog does not respond to changes of the creation mode (BASIC and ADVANCED) whereas the second identical myDialog does. The first one should respond as well like it does when everything is declared in index.xhtml without using the template.
The dialogs are identical in order to show that the issue occuring for the first dialog and not for the second doesn't have anything to do with the structure of the dialog. The example doesn't have any function except illustrating the unexpected behavior (p:inputText isn't bound to backing bean values, etc.).

JSF datatable, tomahawk radio

I'm attempting to use a t:radio in my rich:datatable but it's always complaining about the fact that it can't find the component. I did some googling and I have to declare the full name, but I actually think I'm doing that.
Anyone can point me what I'm doing wrong? The code (I'm not going to give a minified version because I'm guessing it's going wrong with the compositions):
letterDetailTemplate.xhtml:
<h:form id="generateLetterForm">
<ui:include src="addStandardLetterMain.xhtml" />
<ui:include src="addStandardLetterText.xhtml" />
<ui:include src="buttons.xhtml" />
</h:form>
addStandardLetterText.xhtml (the radio button is over here, in the slrDataTable):

Note that this view works and renders and displays the data from the backingbean when I remove the t:radio.

javax.faces.FacesException: java.lang.IllegalStateException: Could not find component 'generateLetterForm:slrDataTable:slrOption' (calling findComponent on component 'generateLetterForm:slrDataTable:0:j_idt258')
Change for="generateLetterForm:slrDataTable:slrOption" to for=":generateLetterForm:slrOption" and specify id for your t:radio in datatable also. Don't forget the ":" before generateLetterForm.

Rerendring a component inside popupPanel fails

I have popupPanel with a simple form (for search) and a dataTable (for search results). I try to Rerender the dataTable after submitting the form and populating the search results which fails. Here is the source code

why I cannot rerender my datatable , do I miss something here?
any help will be appreciated.
There is no reRender attribute for <a4j:commandButton> for the version you are using. You can check the tag reference below
a4j:commandButton.
Based on the code I'm seeing (ui:composition not taken into account), if you want to update the dataTable simply change
reRender="ruleSearchPanel"
to
render ="searchForm:resultRuleSets"
If you are confused about determining ids check the link below
How can I know the id of a JSF component so I can use in Javascript
Note: Some of the attributes that you are using are not defined in some of the components that you are using. For example
lenght for rich:popupPanel
selectedClass for rich:extendedDataTable
label for rich:column

Datatable selection not working

When I select a row in my primefaces datatable the row highights, but the selection event is not being invoked and the selected row data is not going to it. Also I notice that my eclipse debugger seems to just hang with PrimeFaces, anyone else notice this? Below is my .xhtml.

your onXXX attributes are bound to opaque strings, when they're supposed to be bound to javascript fragments (either a method call or a fragment that executes some code). i'm guessing javascript is throwing an exception, and nothing gets sent to the server because execution in the browser halts.
Put the <p:datatable> into a <h:form> component.
May be this is only a missing <h:form> start tag in your post (the </h:form> end tag is included). But forgetting to wrap a data posting component into a <h:form> is a common mistake which leads to the symptoms described by you.
Seems the problem was IE9. Problem disappeared with Firefox.
This can happen if there is another issue in the data table for example in my case the table is editable but I did not add editMode attribute after I added it selection also started working.
