Getting element id inside of rich:column

[dkim18]

Hi

I am trying to get element id this is inside of rich:column. If I take selectBooleanCheckbox out of rich:column, it works. (This only works in Firefox not IE.) So, it is not working inside of rich:column. I googled and tried, but wasn't successful.

So, my questions are:
1. how do I get element id inside of rich:column?
2. why this doesn't work even outside of rich:column in IE?

thx,

<h:form id="kpata" styleClass="edit">
...
...
<h:selectBooleanCheckbox  value="#{quanChkBoxBean.kpataAllQ1}" id="kpataAllQ1" onclick="quanChkBox();"/> Select All Q1
...
...

<rich:column>
     <h:selectBooleanCheckbox id="kpataCherokeeG1Q1"  value="#{quanChkBoxBean.kpataCherokeeG1Q1}" /><b/>
      <h:outputText value="Cherokee" />
  </rich:column>

function quanChkBox(){
                                         if(document.getElementById('kpata:kpataAllQ1').checked==true){
                                                 document.getElementById('kpata:kpataCherokeeG1Q1').disabled = true;

...

*****************************

I found followings:

this works since this is outside of rich:column:
if (#{rich:element('kpata:kpataAllQ1')}.checked==true) {
        #{rich:element('kpata:kpataAllQ1')}.disabled = true;
}


but this doesn't work. (maybe this is inside of rich:column?)
if(document.getElementById('kpata:kpataAllQ1').checked==true){
   alert("test2");          
   #{rich:element('kpata:kpataCherokeeG1Q1')}.checked = true;
  }

anyway, rich:column causing problem and this seems obvious so far.

hi,

i think the id generated of your checkbox is not kpata:kpataCherokeeG1Q1. if you use firebug you can find a row index number is inserted in the id of your checkbox .

That's right. I guess topic-starter uses some kind of data table, not standalone rich:column component. So, for the case of data table there are check boxes generated for table rows and each has a special ID, so you won't be able to address them without coding some kind of cycle. I suggest to use jQuery for this case, take a look at rich;jQuery component.
