facelets.BUILD_BEFORE_RESTORE problem

dro_k Feb 24, 2009 12:34 AM

I have many forms that the form is inside a <a4j:outputPanel ajaxRenderer="true"> and on validation the form re-renders to show the validation errors.

If I set the facelets.BUILD_BEFORE_RESTORE context parameter to true, (to avoid getting ViewExpiredExceptions on expired sessions) then when the form re-renders, the browser only shows the re-rendered HTML, not the whole page. So basically you start with a full page with header, footer, etc and after you click on the submit button , you get a page that only has the contents of the <a4j:outputPanel>, the form inputs and a funny URL with all the input names and values.

I am using RichFaces 3.3.0.GA and Facelets 1.1.15.B1 with Seam 2.0.3.CR1 and JSF-RI 1.2_10.

Thanks,

Drew
