h:form wraps rich:togglePanel does not work

nimo22 Apr 17, 2009 2:39 AM

I have a rich:togglePanel:

This works fine:

<rich:toggleControl for="myToggle" value="toggle"/>
<rich:togglePanel id="myToggle" initialState="_2" switchType="client" stateOrder="_1,_2">
 <f:facet name="_1">hello</f:facet>
 <f:facet name="_2">
 <h:form>
 <h:commandButton .../>
 </h:form>
</rich:togglePanel>

But I need the form around my rich:togglePanel! So I wrap a form around my togglePanel and delete the form inside the facet:


<h:form>
<rich:toggleControl for="myToggle" value="toggle"/>
<rich:togglePanel id="myToggle" initialState="_2" switchType="client" stateOrder="_1,_2">
 <f:facet name="_1">hello</f:facet>
 <f:facet name="_2">
 <h:commandButton .../>
</rich:togglePanel>
</h:form>

But now, the facets of my togglePanel are not rendered anymore and the toggleControl does not work.

But I need the form around my togglePanel. How can I do that??

found the failure:

I have to wrap my whole content of the facet within a <a4j:outputPanel>:

Look at that:

<h:form>
<rich:toggleControl for="myToggle" value="toggle"/>
<rich:togglePanel id="myToggle" initialState="_2" switchType="client" stateOrder="_1,_2">
 <f:facet name="_1">hello</f:facet>
 <f:facet name="_2">
<!--this content is not rendered-->
<a4j:outputPanel>
test
</a4j:outputPanel>

<!--this content IS rendered-->
<a4j:outputPanel>
test1
</a4j:outputPanel>
</rich:togglePanel>
</h:form>

So I changed it to this, and now ALL components within the facet are rendered:

<h:form>
<rich:toggleControl for="myToggle" value="toggle"/>
<rich:togglePanel id="myToggle" initialState="_2" switchType="client" stateOrder="_1,_2">
 <f:facet name="_1">hello</f:facet>
 <f:facet name="_2">
<a4j:outputPanel>
test

test1
</a4j:outputPanel>
</rich:togglePanel>
</h:form>

strange..

sure.. JSF allows only one child for facets in general.
