    TabPanel of switchType=

      I have a TabPanel which is of switchType="ajax". In one of the tabs I have a Tree. If I click on the tab nothing happens. The tab is not rendered. I have put a breakpoint in the bean used by the tree and do see it getting there. But when I refresh the page the tab does get rendered (BTW, I maintain the selected tab on the severside.)

      JSP Code:

      <%@ taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/jsf/html" prefix="h" %>
      <%@ taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/jsf/core" prefix="f" %>
      <%@ taglib uri="http://richfaces.org/a4j" prefix="a4j" %>
      <%@ taglib uri="http://richfaces.org/rich" prefix="rich" %>
      
      <rich:tabPanel switchType="ajax">
       <rich:tab id="__tab_home" label="Home">
       <rich:panel styleClass="rich-laguna-panel-no-header">
       The home page here!!!
       </rich:panel>
       </rich:tab>
       <rich:tab id="__tab_objects" label="Objects">
       The search panel goes here.
       </rich:tab>
       <rich:tab id="__tab_reports" label="Reports">
       <rich:tree
       style="width:200px;"
       switchType="client"
       value="#{myTree.rootNode}"
       var="item">
       <rich:treeNode>
       <h:outputText value="#{item.name}" />
       </rich:treeNode>
       </rich:tree>
       </rich:tab>
      </rich:tabPanel>
      


      Bean Code:
      public class MyTreeBean {
      
       private TreeNode _rootNode;
      
       public TreeNode getRootNode() {
       if (_rootNode == null)
       loadTree();
       return _rootNode;
       }
      
       private void loadTree() {
       System.out.println("Loading KM Tree ...");
       _rootNode = new TreeNodeImpl();
      
       {
       TreeNodeImpl treeNode = new TreeNodeImpl();
       treeNode.setData("Departments");
       _rootNode.addChild(new Integer(1), treeNode);
       }
       {
       TreeNodeImpl treeNode = new TreeNodeImpl();
       treeNode.setData("Resources");
       _rootNode.addChild(new Integer(2), treeNode);
       }
      
       System.out.println("Finished loading KM Tree ...");
       }
      
       public void processSelection(NodeSelectedEvent event) {
       }
      
      }
      


      When I click on the "Report" tab it does not render.

      RichFaces Version: 3.3.0
      Server: WebLogic 10
      Browser: IE and FireFox

      Any kind of help is appreciated.

            checked and works under latest richfaces-demo snapshot.

            if it works with switchMode=server? Try to update RF.

            • 3. Re: TabPanel of switchType=

              Where can I download the "ricfaces-demo snapshot"?

              And it is working with switchType="server".

                follow the link in my signature. There you fined the link to download the demo sources.

                  Hi Ilya,

                  I figured out the issue. It had to do with WebLogic. To use JSF on WebLogic you have to use the JSF library that comes with WebLogic.

                  When I took the same application and deployed in Tomcat everything worked fine. Then I noticed that there is a difference in the JSF version being used between WebLogic and Tomcat. So I upgraded the JSF library on WebLogic to 1.2_09 (shows as 1.2_09-b02-FCS on the console). And everything worked.

                  So anyone using WebLogic make sure that you upgrade to the latest version of JSF or atleast 1.2_09. Just removed the jars in jsf-1.2.war and replace them with the new ones.

                  Thanks,
