rich:messages when no messages at all

[juanignaciosl]

I want rich:messages to display a container red box for error messages (not only a list with the errors, but also a surrounding red box). I'm trying this:

<rich:messages infoClass="hidden" fatalClass="hidden" warnClass="hidden" styleClass="error message" />

This works ok when there're messages, but also displays an empty red box when there are no messages.

How can I solve this?

[juanignaciosl]

We're thinking on rendered, maybe controlled by a backing-bean side property, but it will make reRender stop working, since it will not be rendered initially. We could use a wrapping outputPanel, but it would make rich:messages less usable...

Any ideas?

Thank you for the Jira entry. I'll be watching it!

I've seen you've already solved it! Will it be available at any nightshot, or I should wait for 3.2 release?

Thanks a lot!!

most likely, for 3.1.1
I will explain the versions today.

[juanignaciosl]

Thank you very much. I've posted twice today, dealing to two Jira reports, and both are done! Congratulations!!!

Finally it won't be released until 3.2?

Ok, thank you very much for your support!

I've tried richfaces-ui-3.1.1-20070920.000455-2.jar but it's still the same. Does nightly builds include these fixes?

I've tried with richfaces-ui-3.1.1-20070920.000455-2.jar but problem seems to remain the same. Isn't the fix published at nightly builds?

[ilya_shaikovsky]

Sorry.. Most of all our developers works in head and commits only there. And merge of the changes isn't applied everyday to 3.1.1 branch. It's our fault, we've forgot to mention that. So all such changes will be added to 3.1.1 stable branch ASAP after fix and checking.

[juanignaciosl]

Ok, thank you very much. You're doing a great job with RF!!!
