disabled attribute not rendered in commandButton

[Sagar Salimath]

Hi,

I am facing a wiered issue.
I am using JSF commandButton for some links on a portlet. I have diabled attribute in the tag to handle role based access.
The tag looks like this,

<h:commandButton id="updateEventMessageButton" action="#{eventMessageCodeControllerBean.updateEventMessageCode}"
								value="#{msg['label.eventmessagecode.editEventMessageCode.save']}" onclick = "prszationSetting();flagwarn=false;"
								disabled="#{eventMessageCodeDataBean.updateEvtMsgCodeFlag}"
								style="COLOR:#00f;BACKGROUND-COLOR:transparent;CURSOR:hand;FONT-SIZE:14px;WIDTH:30px;BORDER:0;text-align:left;font-family: Verdana; font-size: 11px;clip: rect(auto, auto, 2px, auto);  vertical-align: bottom;word-spacing: normal" >
						</h:commandButton>

Here the disabled is set to true.
But when this page is rendered, I get this,

<input id="viewns_7_SAE5CL4RQ8OC50ICDDRIC92002_:editEventMessageCodeForm:updateEventMessageButton" type="submit" name="viewns_7_SAE5CL4RQ8OC50ICDDRIC92002_:editEventMessageCodeForm:updateEventMessageButton" value="Save" onclick="prszationSetting();flagWarn=false;" style="COLOR:#00f;BACKGROUND-COLOR:transparent;CURSOR:hand;FONT-SIZE:14px;WIDTH:30px;BORDER:0;text-align:left;font-family: Verdana; font-size: 11px;clip: rect(auto, auto, 2px, auto);  vertical-align: bottom;word-spacing: normal" />

As you can see, the disabled attribute does not get rendered. And I DONT KNOW WHY?

Anyone has any answer to this? Is onclick creating an issue here?

Thanks,

Nothing is obviously wrong, although I'm rather appalled at the style attribute value. Something that complex deserves its own class definition. And while I THINK css is case-insensitive, the convention is to use lower-case names for the style elements.

But as for your REAL problem, all I can say is "check the return value from the bean's property accessor and make sure its signature is as follows:

public boolean isUpdateEvtMsgCodeFlag() {
    ....
}
