I have an ajaxRendered=true outputPanel around a modalPanel which shows up when rendered.

This works fine, but if a have a form inside with an inputfield (ajax support) for example, the form get´s

submitted but the values are not set to my model. I tried everything from links,buttons etc. they have the same behaviour.

When i use a normal modalPanel everything works fine. I´ve also tried to us a form only around the inputfield but this

makes no difference too.

@ i found out that it has something todo with the facesmessages, because if i open the modalpanel manually without showWhenRendered the

msg variable in the datatable resolves to null after i ajax submit the inputfield. When does the jsf fw reset the facesmessages ?!
