h:commandButton and h:commandLink not invoking the model during first click

[Vinu Shanmugam]

Hi,


I have some issues with a4j:commandButton. It is not invoking the model during first click. After the first click, it works.

I enabled PhaseListener. During the first button click, only Restore View and Render Response phases are executed.

<h:panelGroup id="workspace"> <table> <tr> <td class="WSPANELHEADER"> <h:outputText value="#{adminworkspace.workspaceTitle}"/> </td> <td class="WSPANELHEADER" align="right"> <h:form> <h:commandButton value="_" action="#{adminWindowController.MinimizeWindow}"> <f:ajax param="#{adminWindowController.passedWindowName}" value="#{adminworkspace.workspaceTitle}"/> </h:commandButton>   <h:commandButton value="X" action="#{adminWindowController.CloseWindow}"> <f:ajax param="#{adminWindowController.passedWindowName}" value="#{adminworkspace.workspaceTitle}"/> </h:commandButton> </h:form> </td> </tr> <tr> <td> <ui:include src="#{adminworkspace.workspaceContent}"/> </td> </tr> </table> </h:panelGroup>

I am working for past 5 days to resolve this issue with no luck. There were many others posted the same issue none of their solutions address my problem (I have the form tag in place, I have all my beans in session).

I faced the same issue with RichFaces 4 as well. I got fed up with it and I removed RichFaces and tried the same thing with plain JSF implementation.

Thanks
Vinu
