how come the reRender doesn't work for this case?

[vh]

reRender works greate in most of my cases, but not in this one.
I have a <rich:tree id="myTree"> inside my template file, I have another allDesktop.xhtml that defines the "body" part in the template

in allDesktop.xhtml, I have a <rich:table id="myTable"> and a <a4j:commandButton .. reRender="myTable,myTree">

What I see is that "myTable" is reRendered correctly, but not "myTree".




template.xhtml:






<h:form id="treeForm">
<rich:panel bodyClass="inpanelBody" id="myTree">
<rich:tree ....>
<rich:treeNode type="node">
<h:outputText value="#{item.name}" />
</rich:treeNode>
</rich:tree>
</rich:panel>
</h:form>



<ui:insert name="body">Body</ui:insert>

I have about the same problem with rerender and facelets. Only parts of my page or even no parts are rerendered. The difference: I have a tree and on selection of a node no rerender is performed.

I kind of suspect that because my tree is in a template and my table is in a included file, the reRender is initiated from the included file, so it won't go out of the include file and redraw the outside tree.

Does any one know anything about it?

You can use binding attribute of the tree. Then you can write something as #{bean.treeComponentId} as a value of reRender attribute. The tree will be founded.

Now I made it a simple case. I put the table and tree each in a td, but only the table reRender worked, tree still doesn't reRender. Is this a problem in tree itself?



<rich:tree style="width:300px" value="#{allDesktopBean}"
var="item" nodeFace="node"
switchType="client"
id="myTree">
<rich:treeNode type="node">
<h:outputText value="#{item.name}" />
</rich:treeNode>
</rich:tree>



<rich:dataTable
id="myTable"
rows="20"
....
</rich:dataTable>
