switchToState of rich:toggleControl does not work

goldfrog Sep 25, 2007 6:58 AM

I am trying to create a wizard for data input.
I try to do so, using rich:toggleControl and rich:toggleControl
but when switchToState of rich:toggleControl is set , an java.lang.IllegalArgumentException is throw. So i copy some example code from RichFaces Developer Guide
it does not work too. I search in jira and find no related topic. Is this a bug?

here is my sample code


<%@ page language="java" contentType="text/html; charset=UTF-8"
 pageEncoding="UTF-8"%>
<%@ taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/jsf/html" prefix="h"%>
<%@ taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/jsf/core" prefix="f"%>
<%@ taglib uri="https://ajax4jsf.dev.java.net/ajax" prefix="a4j"%>
<%@ taglib uri="http://richfaces.ajax4jsf.org/rich" prefix="rich"%>

<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8">
<title>??????</title>
<link href="../../css/common.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css">
</head>
<body>
<f:view>
 <h:form id="helloForm">

 <rich:togglePanel id="panel" initialState="empty" switchType="client">

 <f:facet name="first">

 <h:panelGroup>

 <rich:toggleControl for="helloForm:panel" value="Empty "
 switchToState="empty" />

 <rich:toggleControl for="helloForm:panel" value=" Second"
 switchToState="second" />

 ...//Some Content

 </h:panelGroup>

 </f:facet>

 <f:facet name="second">

 <h:panelGroup>

 <rich:toggleControl for="helloForm:panel" value="Empty "
 switchToState="empty" />

 <rich:toggleControl for="helloForm:panel" value=" first"
 switchToState="first" />

 ...//Some Content

 </h:panelGroup>

 </f:facet>

 <f:facet name="empty">

 <h:panelGroup>

 <rich:toggleControl for="helloForm:panel" value="first "
 switchToState="first" />

 <rich:toggleControl for="helloForm:panel" value=" second"
 switchToState="second" />

 </h:panelGroup>

 </f:facet>

 </rich:togglePanel>
 </h:form>
</f:view>
</body>
</html>

the blue text is completely copied from RichFaces Developer Guide, Chapter 6.69
I have try to remove all for="helloForm:panel" , it does't work either;
Any one can help?

i found that if the facet name is stored in an attribute of a managed bean, the toggleControl works fine
