Hi,
I need a component that will do the following:
- render an icon with an HtmlAjaxCommandLink
- clicking the icon an action will be triggered
- clicking the icon a modal panel will appear with some label, text and so on.
This is the tag I have in mind:
So, I started to write a custom component that will extend an HtmlAjaxCommandLink
The idea is to use
and then add a child component to the DOM:
Tag works fine ....
(see one.gif)
but if a
JSF validation is triggered (i.e. a missing value in a mandatory field), something goes wrong.
(see two.gif)
The component is rendered again, so I have two icons in the page.
(see three.gif)
While debugging, I saw that after validation, encodeBegin is called again and that
getChildCount() returns 1.
The solution I found is to invoke g
etChildren().clear() in
encodeBegin method.
I know that this is not the right way to fix my problem.
Any suggestion?
Many thanks,
Tommaso
