h:inputText inside rich:datatable

[nmaric]

Hi,

can someone tell me what i am doing wrong with this.

i have list (List) in MyBean. also, declared HtmlDataTable object for binding rich:datatable to bean.

in table, in jsp part, i have inputs that could be changed. there are inputtext and selectOneMenu.
the problem is when i submit changes from form they are not visible on BackingBean. here is a code, so maybe you will see mistakes.

thanks in advance!!!

class SomeObject {
private String type;
private String value;
public void setType(String type) {
this.type = type;
}
public String getType() {
return type;
}
public void setValue(String value) {
this.value = value;
}
public String getValue() {
return value;
}
}


class MyBean {
List list = new ArrayList();
HtmlDataTable table;

....
getters/setters
....

public String onContinue() {
.....
//here i don't see changes that i made on form
}
}

View.jsp

....
<rich:dataTable id="objects" binding="#myBean.table}"
value="#{myBean.list}" var="obj">

...
<rich:column>
<h:inputText id="input_value" value="#{obj.value}" />
</rich:column>
<rich:column>
<h:selectOneMenu id="select_type" value="#{obj.type}">
<f:selectItem itemLabel="type1" itemValue="type1" />
<f:selectItem itemLabel="type2" itemValue="type2" />
<f:selectItem itemLabel="type3" itemValue="type3" />
</h:selectOneMenu>
</rich:column>
.....
</rich:dataTable>
<a4j:commandLink id="continueLink" immediate="true" action="#{myBean.onContinue}">
<h:graphicImage value="/images/butt-continue.gif" />
</a4j:commandLink>
....

why do you need the binding in general?

binding to component should be request scoped.

[nmaric]

i use it for rowIndex 'cause i have to have button to reset particular row to default values, before changing. also, have to add new rows and some other things that is already implemented into HtmlDataTable

i changed scope to request, but still the same

[ilya_shaikovsky]

also remove immediate from command link.

see my previous comment.

that's it!!!
it works!!

now i noticed some other bugs :) but at least i can go forward.
i used immediate 'cause link didn't work at all without it. but now i see that problem isn't in link, the problem is somewhere inside datatable.

thanks, again :)
