Modal Panel - tabbed Panel ignoring selected tab

[sunray2003]

I have a button. Clicking on the button would open/reRender a popup with 3 tabs. Whenever the popup opens, I want the first tab to be selected.

On the Back button of each tab, I set the selectedTab to the first tab and hide the popup.

But Richfaces 3.3.3 Final always opens the popup with the last tab I was on. It seem to ignore the selectedTab value.

Here is the code snippet.

<a4j:commandButton

        action="#{myController.doSomething()}"

        value="Open Tabbed Popup"

        ajaxSingle="true"

        reRender="myPanel"

        oncomplete="Richfaces.showModalPanel('myPanel')" />

<rich:modalPanel id="myPanel" width="750" height="600">

    <f:facet name="header">

        <h:outputText value="My Panel" />

    </f:facet>

    <rich:tabPanel switchType="ajax" id="myPanelTabs" selectedTab="#{myController.selectedTab}">

        <rich:tab label="myPanelTab1" id="myPanelTab1" name="myPanelTab1">

            <ui:include src="./myPanelTab1.xhtml" />

        </rich:tab>

        <rich:tab label="myPanelTab2" id="myPanelTab2" name="myPanelTab2">

            <ui:include src="./myPanelTab2.xhtml" />

        </rich:tab>

        <rich:tab label="myPanelTab3" id="myPanelTab3" name="myPanelTab3">

             <ui:include src="./myPanelTab3.xhtml" />

        </rich:tab>

     </rich:tabPanel>

</rich:modalPanel>   

Back Button on tabs

<a4j:commandButton  value="Back" action="#{myController.setSelectedTab(myPanelTab1)}" oncomplete="Richfaces.hideModalPanel('myPanel');" />
