I'm looking to do the same thing in RF4.

Does anyone know how this can be done?  I want to set the first row to be the active/selected row when i make a selection from a list.

I tried adding the componentControl to trigger the javascript method calls to selectRow and setActiveRow like so

                         <rich:componentControl event="selectitem" target="task_data_table"

                                operation="selectRow">

                                <f:param value="#{taskBean.currentIndex}"/>

                            </rich:componentControl>

                            <rich:componentControl event="selectitem" target="task_data_table"

                                operation="setActiveRow">

                                <f:param value="#{taskBean.currentIndex}"/>

                            </rich:componentControl>

but it didn't trigger the table.  I'm wondering if it is because i don't have data in the table yet.
