welcome to the community diego,

try out this code :

<h:form id="form1">

     <table>

          <tr>

               <td>

                    <a4j:commandButton id="btn1" value="prueba" action="#{loginMB.prueba}" execute="@this" render="form2:opn1"/>

               </td>

          </tr>

     </table>

</h:form>

<h:form id="form2">

     <a4j:outputPanel id="opn1" rendered="#{rendered=='true'}">         

     <table>

          <tr>

               <td>

                    <a4j:commandButton id="btn2" value="mostrar" action="#{loginMB.renderiza}" execute="@this"/>

               </td>

          </tr>

     </table>

     </a4j:outputPanel>

</h:form>

Hi Diego, what is the reason for using 2 forms?

Regards,

Brendan.

from RichFaces 3 my reports pages are divided in two forms

form1 filters

form2 result, datatable, link details, etc.

and the code of my post is similar.

what if it works is to place the outputPanel "opnl" inside Form 2, but I wanted to do it the way I did in richfaces 3.

thanks for responding

Hmm ok, I don't personally recommend using multiple forms but if it worked for you in RF3 it ought to be ok now also,

probably.

What happens when you try Ibrahim's suggestion? so the problem is that the btn2 action method doesn't fire, have

you removed any input components from the code you've posted?

Can you check if the action method for btn2 doesn't fire only the first time you click it, does it work on the second and

subsequent clicks (this should be fixed by Ibrahim's suggestion...).

Also does you page have a <h:head></h:head> section somewhere? One more thing, what is the scope of your

backing bean?

Regards,

Brendan.

In my code my btn2 never enters  action, my mb is in request scope and i not imports in the head of page.

my code posted is the only in my page.

this code if it works or

Diego, if you really want to get the problem solved just don't use multiple forms. I've lost count of the number of times

I've come across this issue and it's best just to not do it. If you can think of any good reason to persist with this approach

then I'd like to hear it. Use a single form per page, use ajax, send the input fields you need with execute=, avoid all

the issues with naming containers, mojarra spec bugs and make your life easy. Trust me this is the way to go.

Thanks,

Brendan.

you are right with a single form would have no problem and property execute would help me control what sending the reason that is used by multiple forms that seemed a more orderly, because in my pages usually have many controls (filters, datatables, two or three modalpanels, etc).  Brendan thanks for the advice I will remember.
