s:decorate reRendered with ajax not appearing on page

[ivans]

This is the code

<a4j:outputPanel
     rendered="#{not empty zastupnik}">
          <table>
          <tr>
          <s:decorate id="nameDecoration" template="/layout/editTD.xhtml">
               <ui:define name="label">#{messages.personName}</ui:define>
               <h:inputText value="#{zastupnik.name}" required="true">
               </h:inputText>
          </s:decorate>
          </tr>
          </table>
...

This part of the page is reRendered using a4j:commandButton. An action on that button makes the a4j:outputPanel rendered condition become true.
But the component nameDecoration doesn't show up.
Without <table><tr> and </tr><table> that part turns up after the ajax request is processed.

Replacing s:decorate with ui:decorate makes the above code work but then we lose
invalid that is available inside of s:decorate.

Any ideas what could cause this problem?

Note: template used above (/layout/editTD.xhtml) is a modification of the original template: div is removed and label and input are in seperate td's.

Thanks!

I do the same thing...

The problem is that you removed the <div>, did you modify jboss-seam-ui.jar?

The reason for this is that the reRender is unable to locate the underlying component (the <div>).  I'm pretty sure of this.  If you set the reRender to the entire form, see if it works that way.

Well i just moved do seam 2.1 and there is a more important error that I will have to try fixing. I will try digging more into this isue when there is more time. Thanks.
