Hi, I have looked at the info and modified the jsp accordingly, the full detail follows. What I have found is that the ExtendedDataTable selection works fine in the main panel but in all of the modal panels included it only gets set when I add an a:commandButton to the modal panel. It seems to get set when the modal panel closes.
