Rerendering component to use updated value in bean
mpgong Oct 21, 2011 10:31 AMHello,
I was wondering how i can update/re-render a component to use a value from bean that was updated from a selection in a panelmenuitem.
Here is a snippet of what i have.
<h:form> <h:panelGrid columns="2" columnClasses="panel,panel2" width="100%"> <rich:panel bodyClass="panel-custom-body"> <rich:panelMenu styleClass="panelMenu-custom" itemMode="ajax" groupMode="ajax" groupExpandedLeftIcon="triangleUp" groupCollapsedLeftIcon="triangleDown" topGroupExpandedRightIcon="chevronUp" topGroupCollapsedRightIcon="chevronDown" itemLeftIcon="disc"> <rich:panelMenuGroup label="Pojects" expanded="true"> <rich:panelMenuItem label="Project 1" name="proj_1" style="background:#D80000;color:white" /> <rich:panelMenuGroup label="Project 2" name="proj_2" id="p2"> <rich:panelMenuItem label="Total Tasks 145" name="task1" /> <rich:panelMenuItem label="Complete 125" name="task2" /> <rich:panelMenuItem label="Open 15" name="task3" /> <rich:panelMenuItem label="Invalid 5" name="task4" /> </rich:panelMenuGroup> <rich:panelMenuItem id="p3" label="Project 3" name="proj_3" style="background:green;color:white;" actionListener="#{ProjDetailBean.handleMenuSelectionAction}"> </rich:panelMenuItem> </rich:panelMenuGroup> </rich:panelMenu> </rich:panel> <rich:panel bodyClass="panel-custom-body"> <rich:panel id="detailsHeader" header="Project Details for #{ProjDetailBean.detailsTitle}" styleClass="cp-custom"> </rich:panel> </rich:panel> </h:panelGrid> </h:form>
In the above, i want to select Project 3 and then it updates a bean with the value in ProjDetailBean.detailsTitle to be Project 3. I then want this name to then show up on the panel's header. Initially it is blank. I'm able to set the detailsTitle value in the bean but how do i get the panel to rerender and pull in the value from the bean?
Thanks
