How to update the changes in main page after closing the rich:modal panel?

[raghu_dev2005]

Hi Everyone !
    I m using rich:modal panel in my application.In the modal panel i m performing an update operation. After the update operation, panel will get close and a message should be displayed. I have placed my message inside a panel grid. The Problem i m facing is that i can't rerender the panel grid...can anyone help me to solve this....Here is the code i m using....
<rich:modalPanel...>
...
   <a4j:commandButton value="Update" data="#{effortPlanHandler.effortPlanModel.effortPlanAuxVo.showUpdate}"
                                                                action="#{effortPlanHandler.effortCalculated}" oncomplete="if(data ==  'updated')javascript:Richfaces.hideModalPanel('eftcal')" rerender="uptmsg">
... 
<rich:modalPanel>

and the panel grid to be rerender is .....

<h:panelGrid columns="3" id="uptmsg" rendered="#{effortPlanHandler.effortPlanModel.effortPlanAuxVo.showUpdate == 'updated'}">
                                        <h:outputText  value = "CRID :"/>
  <h:outputText  value="#{effortPlanHandler.effortPlanModel.effortPlanVo.selectedRowCRID}"/>
                                        <h:outputText  value=" was updated successfully."/>                                      
</h:panelGrid>

  The noticeable one is , the modal panel will be closed on the "showUpdate" value and it is closing perfectly. But the problem is that the panel grid is not rendered .....

u cannot reRender something that is not there. once u used rendered on uptmsg and it resolves to false, the whole component does not exist in the component tree as far as the browser is concerned.

check rich:outputPanel and rich:region for a solution.
