commandLink action is not getting invoked with in dataTable.

Murali Chepuri Mar 18, 2009 12:46 AM

Hi,

I am developing a Search Page in a popup(say popup1).
In the search results dataTable i have a column with links.When we click on a link in a row, we need to pass some attributes(about current selected row) to bean(action) and show one more popup (say popup2).

But commandLink action is not getting invoked when i click on commandLink.

my code is like this

<rich:dataTable>
<rich:column>

<a:commandLink action="#{somebean.someaction}" value="#{row.someColumnName}"/>

</rich:column>

</rich:dataTable>

I tried to use s:link , using which action being invoked.

But it introduced some other problem.
That is ... clicking on any s:link or s:button causing the popup to be closed.For ex if click on a search button (which is actually a s:button) popup window is getting closed.

So either i need the popup as it is with out being closed or i want the a:commandLink to invoke the backing bean action.

Please help me.

Thanks
Murali.

The reason why popup is being closed is

`
<rich:modalPanel id="somePanel"
                showWhenRendered="true"
                rendered="#{bean.showpopUp}">
<s:link value="Search" action ="#{bean.search}" />
<rich:dataTable>
<rich:column>
    <s:link action="#{somebean.someaction}" value="#{row.someColumnName}"/>
</rich:column>

</rich:dataTable>

<rich:modalPanel>`

Notice
rendered="#{bean.showpopUp}" in above code.

so when i click on s:link showPopup is becoming false;So i made it to true somebean.someaction.But still the popup collapses and re opens if u click on search...

In future please don't post your question twice in 2 different threads.

SEAM bean attributes do not get their values changed unless they are told to do so.

So either you have some logic bug in your code, or your SEAM bean is actually getting recreated and you are dealing with a new SEAM bean each time you do a click.

put a method in your SEAM bean and annotate it with the @Create annotation.

inside this method, log a message to your log file. See if this message is happening more then once. If it does then that would indicate that you are getting a new instance of the SEAM bean then what you were on previously.

Maybe you have a page/event scoped bean and you actually need it to be Conversation.

Please only respond to this thread, and please post your code from your bean.

Hi Tim,

Thanks a lot for the reply.One think which did not understand is why popup is collapsed when i click on s:link.

Usually it does not get collapsed if i click on h:commandLink. How ever form may be submitted...but in case of s:link popup itself closed.Why is that happening.
