problem with richfaces

[pankajjain_1510]

i have written following drop down menu....

in action attribute i have written a value which is in faces-config.xml under <from-outcome> tag

<rich:menuGroup value="Inventory Maintainces">
                        <rich:menuItem submitMode="ajax" value="Finished Item"
                            action="finisheditem" />
                        <rich:menuItem submitMode="ajax" value="Labor code and charges "
                            action="labor_code_charges">
                        </rich:menuItem>
                        <rich:menuItem submitMode="ajax" value="Metal code and prices"
                            action="metal_code_prices">
                        </rich:menuItem>
                      
              </rich:menuGroup>

Above code is written in menu.jsp and included using <jsp:include> tag in other jsp.

when application is loaded for the first time and i select one of item from menu , it works properly . Say i select finished item then window of finished item appeares but on the same page when i select "labor code and charges" or "metal code and prices" it will not show any output for respective menu item

Please help me out ,

define submitMode="server" at items which performs navigation.

[pankajjain_1510]

i did the same thing. Following is the code

<rich:dropDownMenu submitMode="server">
                    <f:facet name="label">
                        <h:panelGroup>
                            <h:outputText value="Inventory Control" />
                        </h:panelGroup>
                    </f:facet>
                    <rich:menuGroup value="Inventory Maintainces"  >
                        <rich:menuItem submitMode="Server" value="Finished Item"
                            action="finisheditem" />
                        <rich:menuItem submitMode="Server" value="Labor code and charges "
                            action="labor_code_charges" >
                        </rich:menuItem>
                        <rich:menuItem submitMode="server" value="Metal code and prices"
                            action="metal_code_prices">
                        </rich:menuItem>
                        <rich:menuItem submitMode="server" value="Diamond codes and prices"
                            action="diamond_code_prices">
                        </rich:menuItem>
                        <rich:menuItem submitMode="server" value="Color stones codes and prices"
                            action="color_stone_code_prices">
                        </rich:menuItem>
                        <rich:menuItem submitMode="server" value="Watch inventory"
                            action="watch_inventory">
                        </rich:menuItem>
                               
                        <rich:menuItem submitMode="server" value="Raw Material Inventory "
                            action="samepage">
