Hi,

       I am using rich:tabpanel for swicth over the tabs,right now i included one tab inside rich:tabpanel

if i use switchType="client"  the included page contains <h:form> so i am able to save the record.

but if i use switchType="Server" as my parent xhtml contains a form and also include page contains another form.

so it is not caling the bean class.

if i try to remove the include page <h:form> even after it is not submitting the record what might be the problem .

i want to use Switchtype="server" to refresh the page for each transaction.
