<a4j:support with ontabenter, how to skip validation phase

[renegritsch]

Hi,

i´ve the problem that i need to change the tabs with switchType client logic and additional to set the current

selected tab to my managed bean.

<rich:tab disabled="#{not model.kfz.available}" id="ID2F0F94A0" label="Kfz" switchType="client">
            <a4j:support ajaxSingle="true" event="ontabenter" action="#{tabController.setCurrentTabName('ID58EDF4C8','ID2F0F94A0')}"/>

This works fine, but i´m not able to skip the validation phase. What can i do here? Use <a4:region ??

Thnx

René

In general with AjaxSingle = true only current component is processed.

But in this case you mean that tab processed with all the content? then try to use not support but jsFucntion like:

<form>
        <a4j:jsFunction ajaxSingle="true" event="ontabenter" action="#{tabController.setCurrentTabName}">
          <f:param name="param1">
     </a4j:jsFunction>

<rich:tabPanel>
...
 <rich:tab disabled="#{not model.kfz.available}" id="ID2F0F94A0" label="Kfz" switchType="client" ontabenter="storeTab('ID58EDF4C8','ID2F0F94A0')">
 
....

In that case do not forget to add code for parameter getting from requestMap in action.

Hi,

i got it to work, but i needed to add my changeRichTab script, because otherwise the tab change is not performed

function changeRichTab(tabPanelID, tabID) {
    var fullIDForTabPanel = jQuery("[id$=" + ":"+ tabPanelID + "]").attr("id");
    var fullIDForTab = jQuery("[id$=" + ":" + tabID + "]").attr("id");
    RichFaces.switchTab(fullIDForTabPanel, fullIDForTab, tabID);

}

     <rich:tabPanel id="ID58EDF4C8" switchType="client">

     <rich:tab ontabenter="changeRichTab('ID58EDF4C8','ID2F0F94A0');storeTab('ID58EDF4C8','ID2F0F94A0')" disabled="#{not model.kfz.available}" id="ID2F0F94A0" label="Kfz" switchType="client">
             <a4j:jsFunction name="storeTab" ajaxSingle="true" event="ontabenter" action="#{tabController.setCurrentTabName}">
                  <f:param name="tabpanelId"/>
                  <f:param name="tabId"/>
            </a4j:jsFunction>

But now i have another problem, as soon as call the "storeTab" function, i get the values in java and tab is switched for about 1-2sec.

but then switches back to the old tab ?!?
