How can I hide and show parts of a page dependning if a comp

Hello,

I want to show and hide parts of my JSF-page using AJAX.
Right now I'm using the <f:subview> tag like this:

<f:subview rendered="#{ empty someBean}>
... some kind of form
</f:subview>

I have also a command-link on the page that uses an action that fills that bean someBean. After the reload the subview is shown.

NOW i want to do the same thing with AJAX4JSF using the <a4j:commandLink> tag and rerender the subview.
But this doesn't work!
I would be very thankful for some hints!!!

Best regards, Norbert

something like

<h:selectBooleanCheckbox value="#{bean.enabled}" label="expanded">
 <a4j:support action="#{bean.disable}" reRender="collapsible" event="onchange"/>
 </h:selectBooleanCheckbox>
 <a4j:outputPanel id="collapsible">
 <rich:panel rendered="#{bean.enabled}">
 <f:facet name="header">
 <h:outputText value="Collapsible panel"></h:outputText>
 </f:facet>
 <h:outputText value="Hello"></h:outputText>
 </rich:panel>
 </a4j:outputPanel>

should be acceptable I think

Cool, I'm going to use that too. That comes up a lot. "Click here if your shipping address is different" should then open up a panel to enter the shipping address, for example.
