rich:fileUpload in rich:modalPanel

[zeppelinux]

I copy pasted two classes (File.java and FileUploadBean.java) from RichFaces demo and using the same exact mark up from file upload demo.

It doesn't work for me when rich:fileUpload is placed into the modalPanel, - listener is called, but everything is null in the UploadItem.
Outside of modal panel is fine.

Seam 2.0.2 SP1 + RichFaces 3.2.2-20080608.044237 + Facelets

I had same problem - did not found solution - just dropped modalPanel and placed upload into normal form

[zeppelinux]

Can you please provide your page code here?

Seems you have something wrong there. Fileupload works fine with modal panel in my test invironment.

I originally had this issue but fixed it by adding a form within the modal panel - see below:

The problem I now have is that the "photoPanel" does not get re-rendered when I select a photo on the popup (see code at bottom of post). The action gets fired but reRender doesn't - do I need to qualify the call ie mainform:photoPanel ????

Thanks,
John

maybe the subview here can cause visibility problem for the rerender...
