Ya..i know use of modal panel, but my problem is as i have described, the value i am giving to input text on a modal panel and after clicking a a4j:commandButton on that same modal panel, i am not getting the value in manage bean...

[user1234]

with the same data its work fine if those are not inside the modal panel....i have seen the example from live demo edit with modal panel...there its using two h:form , means modal panel fields are in different form...but in my case there should be a single h:form..
please help why its behaving strangely.....

You can use domElementAttachment attribute: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/RF-5588 . Please take a look at related issues and forum thread.
