adding new tab to existing Tabbed Panel

[Ayub ali khan]

Hi,

I am trying to add a new tab to an existing tabbed Panel. When user clicks on a row (in dataTable) a new tab should be added.

Below is the code of my action method.

HtmlTabbedPanel haTab= (HtmlTabbedPanel) findComponentInRoot("tabbedPanel1");
HtmlBfPanel bfPanel = new HtmlBfPanel();

bfPanel.setId("Manual");
bfPanel.setName("John Smith");
bfPanel.setRendered(true);
bfPanel.setShowFinishCancelButton(false);
haTab.getChildren().add(bfPanel);

This method is executing, however the new tab is not displayed. Please let me know whats the issue with the code.

I am using odc:tabbedPanel tag.

Thank you.

Regards
Ayub

You need to bind the component to the backing bean instead of obtaining it from the view root. Use the 'binding' attribute of the component to bind it with its component representation, the HtmlTabbedPanel.

I have part of the Tabbed Panel from existing jsp page. I need to add a new tab to this existing TabbedPanel on click of a row in Table. Could you give me some more hint or code example of doing this using the backing bean ?

Thank you
