unable to view rich panel
I have peculiar situation. In my JSF project, I have some XHTMLs, which contains rich:panels, rich:dropDownMenu, rich:toolbar. When I run it directly in Eclipse (by right click operation and run on server) I can get the desired output. But whenever this page is triggered from another page or action from any other page, I could only see the rich:dropDownMenu, not the rich:panel i.e the contents of the panel will be displayed but not the panel.
The above image is AddEmployee.xhtml. The first one is output when i run it directly. The second one is when i reach that page via Login.xhtml. My question why i cant view the rich:panel in the second one. Find the related codes here.
