Hello Forum,
I need help with a complete esoteric issue concerning the a4j:commandLink tag. I have two command links in my JSP page that both first invoke an action listener which sets a property of my backing bean. Afterwards, a h:panelGrid inside of a modal panel is re-rendered to display the new properties from the bean.
The relevant code in the JSP page looks like this:
First Link
<a4j:commandLink id="edit" reRender="mp_editCruiserContent"
actionListener="#{cruiserBean.handler.selectCruiser}" immediate="true"
onclick="Richfaces.showModalPanel('mp_editCruiser')">
<a4j:actionparam name="selectedCruiserId" value="#{cruiser.cruiserId}" assignTo="#{cruiserBean.selectedCruiserId}" />
<h:graphicImage alt="Edit" url="/images/edit.png" style="border: 0px; cursor: pointer" />
</a4j:commandLink>Second Link <a4j:commandLink id="delete" reRender="mp_confirmDeleteContent"
actionListener="#{cruiserBean.handler.selectCruiser}" immediate="true"
onclick="Richfaces.showModalPanel('mp_confirmDelete')">
<a4j:actionparam name="selectedCruiserId" value="#{cruiser.cruiserId}" assignTo="#{cruiserBean.selectedCruiserId}" />
<h:graphicImage alt="Delete" url="/images/delete.png" style="border: 0px; cursor: pointer" />
</a4j:commandLink>As you might see, the two links are almost the same, aside from the id of the modal panel to show and the image file for the link icon. That's why I don't understand why the second link invokes the action listener method on my bean, while the first one doesn't. The first thing performed by the action listener method is
System.out.println("In there!");And that output is only plotted to the console when I activate the second link.
Since I am completely at a loss by now (having even compared the code snippets with a text compare tool), I would appreciate any help on this issue.
Thanks in advance,
Talwyn
