    richfaces wizard + <rich:graphValidator/>

    raster3

      Hi,

       

       

      Am trying to use a richfaces wizard using the approach given in http://showcase.richfaces.org/richfaces/component-sample.jsf?demo=togglePanel&sample=wizard&skin=blueSky

      This works nicely - using <rich:togglePanel/>, <rich:togglePanelItem/>, <a4j:commandButton/> and <rich:toggleControl/>

      In one of the wizard pages (<rich:togglePanelItem/>) I need to perform a custom validation. Am trying to do this using <rich:graphValidator/> as described in http://showcase.richfaces.org/richfaces/component-sample.jsf?demo=graphValidator&skin=blueSky

      Somehow am finding that the <rich:graphValidator/> works as long as my <a4j:commandButton/> does not embed a <rich:toggleControl/>.

      Have tried playing with render also.

       

      Am assuming someone will have a proper solution to get this working or should I try a different approach?

      Snippet am having trouble getting to work:-

       

      .....

      <rich:graphValidator value="#{key1}" id="mdgv">

                 <rich:messages for="mdgv" />

                      <rich:messages globalOnly="true" />

                <h:panelGrid columns="3">

       

                  <h:outputText  value="Property name:  " />

          

        

                  <rich:inplaceInput id="property1" value="#{key1.property1}" required="true"  defaultLabel="click to enter property" />

               <rich:message for="property1" />

                <h:outputText  value="Model Type" />

       

       

                          .....

       

                

              </h:panelGrid>

       

       

                          <div class="navPanel" style="width: 100%;">

                                    <a4j:commandButton  action="#{key1.changePage}" render="nextButton" style="float:right" value="Next &gt;&gt;"

                                              id="nextButton">

       

                                              <rich:toggleControl id="toggleControlId" targetItem="panel2" event="click" />

                                    </a4j:commandButton>

                          </div>

                          </rich:graphValidator>

          It looks like expected behaviour not working properly.

          Is there any way to not use <rich:toggleControl/> but get same behaviour by invoking a ajax callback javascript function?

            Got it working by removing the

            <rich:toggleControl/>

             

            Then using this:

             

            <a4j:commandButton oncomplete="someFunc();" render="nextpage" style="float:right" value="Next1 &gt;&gt;"

                                                    id="nextButton"/>

              <h:inputText  value="#{key.page2}" immediate="true" id="nextpage"  />

            </rich:graphValidator>

             

            <SCRIPT type="text/javascript">

            function someFunc()

            {

                      var nextpageName=document.getElementById('nextpage').value;

            RichFaces.$('j_idt50').switchToItem(nextpageName);

             

            }

            </SCRIPT>

             

            It all works if <rich:togglePanel /> hasswitchType="client"
