<ui:repeat> and <a4j:support />

[magix]

Hi,

I use a <ui:repeat> component to iterate over a list. Inside the repeater I would like to reRender some part

<ui:repeat value=#{myList}" var="element">
<h:selectOneRadio>
</h:selectOneRadio>

</ui:repeat>

check a4j:repeat demo. ui:repeat not supports partial updates inside.

Hi,

sorry, I submitted the first post accidentally.
Here's the complete question:
I use a <ui:repeat> component to iterate over a list. Inside the repeater I would like to reRender some part, e.g. I woule like to iterate over some kind of questions, with answers YES, NO, etc (radio buttons in the example below).
If the user selects the answer NO, I would like to reRender the selectOneMenu component for this question (in order to enable it) where the user then can select from a list why he answered NO.

<ui:repeat value=#{myList}" var="element">
<h:outputText value="{element.question}" />
<h:selectOneRadio id="answer"...>
 <f:selectItems .... />
 <a:support event="onchange" reRender="interventi"></a:support>
</h:selectOneRadio>

<h:selectOneMenu id="interventi" >
 <f:selectItems value="#{}" />
</h:selectOneMenu>
</ui:repeat>

But this does not work because the id "interventi" is not correct.
How can I solve this?

thanks
Matthias

read my previous post.. I gues it actual for full description also ;)

Thanks for your immediate response.

But does the example also work for nested <a4j:repeat>?
Because in my example I have 2 loops (I simplified in the previous post)
1st loop: category of question
2nd loop: questions for current category

Is it enough to have 2 UpdateBeans (where UpdateBean refers to the example class on the richfaces demo page)?
Do these UpdateBeans have to be related in a hierarchical manner (reflecting the repeater hierarchy)?
I just don't understand how to apply the example to my situation.

Thx
Matthias

Hi Matthias,

Yes, nested repeats this will also work. If you need to update just one question, there's no need to use hierarchy for beans containing keys.
