    How to disable validation when selecting tab ?

      Hi,

      I have a tabPanel component with switchType ajax. It contains two tabs with input fields, including calendars.

      My problem is that when I select a tab the validation phase is runned, so I can't change tab until I filled all required fields. I'd like the validation to happen only when I submit my form, not when I change tab. I tried to add immediate="true" to my tabPanel, I have no more validation problems, but then I have a problem with converter when the form is submitted :

      Exception during request processing:
Caused by javax.servlet.ServletException with message: "No Converter for type java.util.Date found"


      What is the good way to do this ?

      My JSP page is as following : 

      <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">

 <h:inputSecret id="motDePasse" value="#{compteUtilisateur.password}" required="true" />

 <h:outputLabel value="#{messages['label.dateExpirationCompte']} :" for="dateExpirationCompte" />
 <a4j:region>
 <rich:calendar
 id="dateExpirationCompte"

 locale="#{locale}"
 enableManualInput="true"
 required="true" />
 </a4j:region>
 </h:panelGrid>
 </rich:tab>
 </rich:tabPanel>

 <h:commandButton

 rendered="#{employe.id != null}" />
 <h:commandButton
 id="creer"
 value="#{messages['label.valider']}"
 action="#{employeCrud.create}"
 rendered="#{employe.id == null}" />
 <h:commandButton
 id="annuler"
 value="#{messages['label.annuler']}"
 action="#{employeCrud.annuler}"
 immediate="true" />

 </h:form>
 </rich:panel>
 </f:view>
 </ui:define>
</ui:composition>
</html>


      I use Richfaces 3.1 with Seam 2.0.0.CR1 and JSF 1.2.

      Thanks in advance.
