Hi All,
I am trying to replicate the example mentioned on richfaces show case site for rich panel menu RichFaces Showcase.
I am able to see rich panel menu rendered in browser screen however when I click on any groups its not at all expanding as a result I cannot see the menu item.
Here are the details:
I am using richfaces 4.5.3, myfaces 2.2 ,tomcat 7. added all richfaces mandatory and third party mendatory jars for this version of richfaces.

import org.richfaces.event.ItemChangeEvent
@ManagedBean(name = "panelMenuBean")
public class PanelMenuBean {
private String current;
public void updateCurrent(ItemChangeEvent evt) {
current = evt.getNewItemName();
public String getCurrent() {
return current;
public void setCurrent(String current) {
this.current = current;
}}
Please Help me to figure out what is the problem. Thank you in advance !
