Hi all

I get really bored. I tried to add an Action to a dynamic built HtmlPanelGrid. But the action method never gets called. Please help me!

mySite.xhtml:

<ice:form styleClass="defineCharacteristic" partialSubmit="false">
<ice:panelGrid binding="#{myBean.panel}"/>
</ice:form>

myBean:

private HtmlPanelGrid panelGrid;
private HtmlCommandButton button;

public void createPanel(){
panelGrid = new HtmlPanelGrid();
HtmlInputText input = new HtmlInputText();
input.setId("in")
panelGrid.getChildren().add(input);
button = new HtmlCommandButton();
button.setValue("Submit it!");
MethodBinding mb = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().getApplication() .createMethodBinding("#{myBean.send}", new Class[0]);
button.setAction(mb);
panelGrid.getChildren().add(button);
}

public void send(){
**Method never called**
}

public void setPanel(HtmlPanelGrid _panelGrid){
panelGrid=_panelGrid;
}

public HtmlPanelGrid getPanel(){
return panelGrid;
}

Regards Andy

Hi

I've created a dynamic panelGrid in my BackingBean and added some SelectOneMenues(The amount of the menues is not fix).

Now the page is displayed well, but I'havent found the right approach to identify and catch the selected values.

vehicleCharacteristic.xhtml:

<ice:form styleClass="defineCharacteristic" >
<ice:panelGrid binding="#{characterBean.panel}"/>
</ice:form>

The following Method builds my panel. Each Characterisitc Obj(current) feeds me with a labelname and values which are filled into the selectOneMenu

public HtmlPanelGrid createSelectPanel(HtmlPanelGrid panelGrid){
List characteristics=facade.getProductCharacteristics();
Iterator it=characteristics.iterator();
while(it.hasNext()){
Characteristic current=(Characteristic)it.next();
HtmlOutputLabel label=new HtmlOutputLabel();
label.setValue(current.getLabel());
HtmlSelectOneMenu menu= new HtmlSelectOneMenu();
menu.setId(current.getLabel());
UISelectItems items = new UISelectItems();
List value=current.getValues();
List selectedItems= new ArrayList();
for(int i=0; i<value.size();i++){
selectedItems.add(new SelectItem((String)value.get(i),(String)value.get(i),""));
}
items.setValue(selectedItems);
menu.getChildren().add(items);
panelGrid.getChildren().add(label);
panelGrid.getChildren().add(menu);
}
return panelGrid;


When I submit the form, the setPanel() Method is called and there is my Problem, how do I catch now the components and get the values out of it:

public void setPanel(HtmlPanelGrid _panelGrid){
this.panelGrid=_panelGrid;

//**How do I get here my selected values**//

}

Regards Andy
