h:outputLabel disappears after h:inputText validation fail

[Sergii Olishchuk]

Hi,

Guys, I have a problem with h:outputLabel component. I have the following code:

<h:outputLabel styleClass="desc" value="" for="component_id" />
<h:inputText styleClass="text medium" id="component_id"
value="#{beanForm.val}" required="true" />
<t:message for="component_id" styleClass="fieldError" />

When I leave field blank and make "submit" I see "This is a required field" message and component label disappears. How could I solve this issue with label?

Many thanks

Does anyone know the answer?

Please do not post "bump" messages. If someone knows, they'll answer. If they don't it won't help.

Your value= attribute on the outputLabel has no value in it. So I would not expect it to display anything.

The "value required" error refers to the inputText control, which is not permitted to be empty, since it has the "required" attribute set to "true".

Tim, thank you for your reply. My outputLabel has some value let's say value="someValue" (sorry, I missed that one in the code listing above), and I see it untill validation error occurs. But when the message is printed ("this is a required field") label disappears. Could you suggest me something?

Best guess I can make is that the label is still there, but it's being squashed into invisibility because of the extra space that the message consumes. Try your browser's "View Page Source" function and see what the generated HTML looks like.
