RichFace DataTable sort (get back to page 1 after sorting on

[yytsoi]

Hi,

I am using the following codes in my JSFX with a <rich:dataTable> and a <rich:column> that can be sorted.


<rich:dataTable value="#{searchResults}" var="qItem" rows="5">
<rich:column sortBy="#{qItem.qName}">

etc.

The default behavior of the sort is that if the user is on page 3 and clicks on the sort, it stays in page 3 instead of going to page 1.

I wonder whether there is any way to change this behavior to make it go back to page 1 after a sort.

Hi,

Built-in sorting doesn't allow this. You can use external sorting (check livedemo examples) and reset page number on sorting change.

Hi,

Thank you for your help. I have found the external sort example from live demo. However, do you know what I can reset the page number in the sorting bean?
