a4j components not working

[janson12]

can someone please tell me why some components such as a4j:commandButton aren't working while the normal jsf components work well? sorry for that, but this stuff is getting me well on my way to madness...

Do you have some code you can post?

[janson12]

sure:

<form>
 <h:dataTable id="Items" style="width: 100%" var="Item" value="#{myBean.arrayList}">
 <h:column>
 <h:panelGrid columns="2" border="0">
 <a4j:commandButton id="editB" value="edit" action="#{myBean.actionStore}">
 <a4j:actionparam name="selectedId" value="{Item.x}" assignTo="#{myBean.x}"/>
 </a4j:commandButton>
 <a4j:commandButton id="delB" value="delete" actionListener="#{myBean.actionListenerStore}">
 <a4j:actionparam name="selectedId" value="{Item.x}" assignTo="#{myBean.x}"/>
 </a4j:commandButton>
 </h:panelGrid>
 </h:column>
 <h:column>
 <f:facet name="header">
 <h:outputText value="x" />
 </f:facet>
 <h:outputText value="#{Item.x}" />
 </h:column>
 <h:column>
 <f:facet name="header">
 <h:outputText value="y"/>
 </f:facet>
 <h:outputText value="#{Item.y}" />
 </h:column>
 <h:column>
 <f:facet name="header">
 <h:outputText value="#{Item.z}" />
 </f:facet>
 <h:outputText value ="#{Item.z}" />
 </h:column>
 </h:dataTable>
 </form>

any hint very welcome

value="{Item.x}"

What does it mean?

sorry, forgot the # in front of the brackets. was/is not the problem however :/

I loaded the datatable from the beginning (in the getter-method) right after the page is entered. having done that the a4j:commandButton and actionparam suddenly worked. the datatable itself is on a wizard-like page which seems to cause the problem...still no idea how to make the a4j components work after a user driven search...

ok, thanks folks for the plenty advices. problem solved, solution too simple: got rid of all richfaces components.
cheers

Yes such solutions always simple.. may be html static pages development only? ;)
