h:selectBooleanCheckbox valuechangeListner does not work in a rich datatable

[chaitanya198]

Hello everybody.

I am having some issues with a selectBooleanCheckbox inside a DataTable, and would appreciate some advice.

The checkbox has a value change Listener and is supposed to trigger the value change listner but that behavior is not working….it does Nothing….

Something interesting is if I put another checkbox outside DataTable and click it for the first time, then click the check Box in the datatable.....it works fine.

Please let me know if I am doing anything wrong...Its a bit urgent. Thx
