Row Index in RichFaces Data Table

[Soumya Saha]

Hi,

I have been really struggling to get the row index from the richFaces Data Table in my java script function.

I tried the this object, rowKeyVar attribute, dataTable.rowIndex but nothing seems to work. I binded the data table to an htmldatatable, but still returns 1 only.

I am attaching the code for the binding attribute:

<h:dataTable binding="#{myBean.dataTable}">
<h:column>
<f:facet name="header">
<hutputText value="Row #" />
</f:facet>
<hutputText value="#{myBean.dataTable.rowIndex + 1}" />
</h:column>

...
</h:dataTable>

Any help or any direction will be highly appreciated.

Thanks

Try like this.

Create ListDataModel from list that you are displaying in rich:datatable.
new ListDataModel(java.util.List list);
To your rich:datatable values attribute set this listdatamodel.

Now try row.rowIndex.Should work for sure. Let me know if it does not.

Hi,

I got it to work with rowKeyVar. I can pass that value in my JavaScript Function and it returns me the correct row value.

Thanks everybody and long live RichFaces
