    Forward request do not render components properly

    anykeystudio

      Hello, I've got a render problem when I doing a forward request to a page with Richfaces components. Some Richfaces competent (tab panel, collapsible table, etc) doesn't get properly rendered, or re-rendered when the user fires an forward request. It renders correctly when I redirect the request in my faces-config file (due to the complete request of the page). But when I remove the redirect option, only the standard JSF components get rendered properly. I use ajax in my menu:item when process the request.

       

      I have tried the a4j:region tag, set the render="content" in the menu:item. But problem remains with some of the rich compensates(specially rich:tabPanel, rich:collapsibleSubtable). On the other hand the rich:panel, rich:datatable and standard JSF will render correctly when doing a forward request on other pages.

       

      How can I make these RichFaces components render properly when I do a forward request ?

       

      Greetings Chris.

      PS. I use Richfaces 4.0-final, Glassfish 3.1.
