    rich:dataTable Ajax support

    robertgary1

      The documentation notes that rich:dataTable differs from h:dataTable in its Ajax support. I currently use richFaces to update my h:dataTables by using a reRender from a4j:poll on h:dataTable. This does update the table.

       

      So I'm curious what additional Ajax support rich:dataTable offers.

       

      In addition I'm wondering if rich:dataTable supports Ajax updates of individual rows/cells/columns.

       

      I have a h:dataTable that displays dyanmic system status, so the content changes frequently. Additionally, the user can select a row using a checkbox on the row. This combination has been problematic as the table update timing may interfer with the user checking boxes. I'm wondering if rich:dataTable could make this easier.

          Hi Robert,

          you can do Sorting for Example with rich:dataTable (using rich:columns). You can use Checkboxes with a4j:support to make each Click an update to your Beans via AJAX.

           

          Best regards,
