problem with rich:editor

[muggles]

first: hi, i'm new here and hope, you can help me sometimes

my problem:

i have an extendedTable with the column description for some products.

when i click on the column, i open the rich:editor to edit the description. the problem is, that the editor only shows the value from the column i selected first and after that, he doesn't update the value, when i select another row.

i have a class, that holds the selected product, from where i get the value for the editor. this class works and changes the value.

i only have to update the value of the editor, can you tell me please, how i can do that?

this is the column:

<rich:column>

   <f:facet name="header">Beschreibung</f:facet>

   <a4j:outputPanel onclick="#{rich:component('editorPane')}.show()">

      <h:outputText value=" #{_product.description}">

      </h:outputText>

   </a4j:outputPanel>

</rich:column>

and here is the editor-code:

<rich:popupPanel header="Description" id="editorPane"

            domElementAttachment="parent" width="800" height="600">

            <h:outputText

                value="#{productController.selectedProduct.description}">">

            </h:outputText>

            <rich:editor id="editor"

                value="#{productController.selectedProduct.description}" immediate="true">

            </rich:editor>

            <a4j:commandButton value="Cancel"

                onclick="#{rich:component('editorPane')}.hide(); return false;" />

        </rich:popupPanel>

thx for your help!

Martin, when I do this type of action in richfaces, I always excplicitely set execute="id's I need submitted", render="id's I need (re)rendered"  Those attributes (execute and render) are only availabe in ajax action componenets (i.e a4j:commandButton, a4j:commandLink, a4j:jsFunction, etc).  So when you open and close your popup use on of those action components (i.e <a4j:commandButton value="Click to edit" execute="@this" render="editorPane" oncomplete="#{rich:component('editorPane')}.show();" />)  Then on the button used to close the popup, submit (execute) your editor, and render your outputpanel (which you should give an id to).  Hope that helps.
