rich:ajaxValidator, rerender and f:convertNumber?

[tobi04]

Hi

the rich:ajaxValidator tag has an rerender attribute which not rerender the panel so that the value in the inputText field is converted.


Example:

<!-- f:convertNumber works fine -->
 <a4j:commandButton value="Do"
 action="#{bean.do}"
 reRender="mainPanel" />

<rich:panel id="mainPanel">

 <rich:extendedDataTable ...

 <rich:column ...

 <h:inputText id="price" value="#{bean.value}" size="5"
 validator="#{bean.validate}">
 <f:convertNumber maxFractionDigits="1" pattern="#,###,##0.0"/>
 <!-- after onblur event f:convertNumber does not work -->
 <rich:ajaxValidator event="onblur" rerender="mainPanel"/>
 </h:inputText>

Why is rerender="mainPanel" not get the request in the "Conversion and Validation" phase?


Best regards
Tobi

I spent a day with the same problem. The solution:
rerender -> reRender
That darn capital 'R'

Hi apryce

thanks! But this seems not to be the only problem.

Other suggestions?


Best regards

yes, capital R should solve the problem of just not working attribute.

And b.t.w. I can't get the idea of next sentense

Why is rerender="mainPanel" not get the request in the "Conversion and Validation" phase?

What I mean with the sentence in more detail:
- When I click the commandButton then the conversion of the input value works.
- When the conversion works then the request was in the "Conversion and Validation" JSF phase.
- With reRender the input value is not converted so the "Conversion and Validation" JSF phase seems not to be reached.

reRender could not influence on phases execution. or I'm still missing something in the case.

[tobi04]

No, thats right. The problem seems to be that reRender does not work and I do not know why.
