a4j break post values from readonly inputfields

[grdzeli_kaci]

hi all,
i have richfaces modal panel fro some operations, also i have input fields on modal panel some of them are read only. i have ajax commanbutton for form submition . but i can't get readolnly fild values into backing bean.

is this knowsn issue ???
i know that it is not possible post values from disabled fields , but not readonly.


also i saw post values into my firefox extension - firebug :
(AprpIdModal is read only)

AJAXREQUEST=_viewRoot&modalForm=modalForm&modalForm%3AprpIdModal=4&modalForm%3AprpNameModal=Office&javax

.faces.ViewState=_id3&modalForm%3AsubmitAdmModalWindow=modalForm%3AsubmitAdmModalWindow&

why i got null value into backing bean?

do you mean you can have the bean updated by read-only field in regular non-JSF request?

is it possible ? i want field for class Identificator (sql update by id)?
is there another way ???
i did hidden field for this, is it correct way ???

We recently switched from JBoss 4.0.x to JBoss 4.2, which means JSF-RI instead of MyFaces. We started having the same problem with readonly fields.

We have JavaScript code which fills in the field and expects the value to be posted to the bean.

I think it may be JSF-RI that is dropping the request parameter to bean mapping.

But then again, we also use ajax4jsf/rich faces/Seam 2.0.0beta so any one could also be the culprit.

thank you for your post blazetrail.
i also see jsf and
JSF-RI is dropping the request parameter to bean mapping.

i have resolved this problem by hidden fields, this is not beautiful but it works :)
i though that this is a4j bug and posted it to jira,

i will close it.
