Given the JSF snippet:
<h:form id="formId"> <rich:tree switchType="ajax"> <rich:recursiveTreeNodesAdaptor roots="#{testbean.rootNodes}" nodes="#{item.childrenAsList}" var="item"> <rich:treeNode> <h:outputText value="#{item.infoObjectDTO.shortDescription}" /> </rich:treeNode> </rich:recursiveTreeNodesAdaptor> </rich:tree> </h:form>
<h:form id="formId"> <rich:tree binding="testbean.tree"/> </h:form>
Have you added in the correct ajax functionality when switchType="ajax"? id's?
show s snippet of the backing bean where the tree is generated?
