do not use built-in behavior and use support for onclick instead. if selection already set - processSelection will not be called on further clicks by design because selection actually not changed in that case.

thanks, IIya. I will try <a4j:support event="onclick" instead....I was hoping that I can overwrite some of the javascript code in the framework so the cancel submission can be stopped. was not successful.

My situation is that I have a left-side accordion navigation among which there are 3 areas that hold 3 separate richtrees. Once you make selection on the tree, the right side datatable refreshes. But if user switch to a different tree, they try to click on the node that was previous clicked on, nothing happened. This was confusing....so what I did is that in the adviseNodeSelected, i set selected to default to be false instead of null....this way once the tree is reRendered, it won't have the focus..thus users can click on anything...but in advideNodeOpened, I still left the default to be null, so the nodes will will stay open as the way it was

Now I have another question. for tabpanel, I need to validate a url making sure the url exists using xmlhttprequest....I placed the client-side code in onsubmit, when it does not exist, i return false..the action gets triggered no matter what the return result is even when it is false...

Hello Ilya,

I have read this unfinished post and Im interested becuase I have the same problem.

How I can adapt my tree to the a4j:support approach? my code is this:

<

rich:tree nodeSelectListener="#{BeanTreeMenu.processSelection}"

reRender="selectedNode,panelcuerpo" ajaxSubmitSelection="true"

switchType="client" value="#{BeanTreeMenu.treeNode}" var="item" ajaxKeys="#{null}">

<rich:treeNode iconLeaf="#{BeanTreeMenu.img_hoja}" icon="#{BeanTreeMenu.img_nodo}">

<h:outputText value="#{item.menuNombre}"/>

</rich:treeNode>

</rich:tree>

Thank you very much,

Felipe

P.S. I read you a lot, you resolve 80% of my JSF/richfaces problems
