Hi,

I found the problem and attached a patch for this issue. Can someone check  
the code, test the application again and commit this? Or has anyone other  
suggestions for this bug?

We tested this on our application and it works for us.

Re: Drilldown type app. without session bean?

2005-12-07 Thread Yannick Le Teigner


ARGH!
Simon, you just pointed out my mistake!
I was using:

getRequestMap().put(#{User}, new User(id));
While I really should have bean using:
getRequestMap().put(User, new User(id));

Notice, the EL notation.. As you said, this last line is equivalent to 
below line when you use request beans:


ValueBinding binding = ctx.getApplication().createValueBinding(#{User});
binding.setValue(ctx, new User(id));


Thanks for the help!


Just FYI, using
 getRequestMap().put(User, new User(id));


 should be the same as the above code. The expression evaluator simply 
looks in request, session
 and application scopes for an entry of the specified name. If not 
found, then it looks for a
 managed bean declaration and instantiates as described earlier. 
However as long as you've got

 something working, that's the important bit :-).



Cheers,

Simon

MyFaces and IBM Portal

2005-12-07 Thread Kandasamy, Uma




All,

I am 
having problems when trying todeploy JSR 168 portlets (built using MyFaces 
Impl) on IBM Portal 5.1.
It 
could very well be a problem with IBM supporting the MyFaces JSF Implementation. 
As far as I know, the RAD tool used for creating portlets supports only SUN RI. 
The web.xml supplied by the RAD tool explicitly depends on the SUN's 
configureListener. When I tried changing that to the MyFaces listener, I had 
some class cast exception.

Has 
any one successfully used this combination ?

Thanks 
in advance,

RE: Tree2 Best Practices.

Thanks a lot

-Original Message-
From: Simon Kitching [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] 
Sent: Tuesday, December 06, 2005 7:06 PM
To: MyFaces Discussion
Subject: Re: Tree2 Best Practices.

Hi,

I'm not sure that Tiles is relevant. It allows you to compose a page 
from different fragments, and easily rearrange the order in which the 
fragments are output in the response.

However if you want some large JSF components (eg a tree with many 
nodes) to be rendered inside a fixed-size box, with scrollbars to access

the bits of the component not currently visible then that's a different 
issue.

And if you want a split-pane type effect on the screen so that you can

adjust the amount of visible screen allocated to different parts of the 
page then that's also a different issue.

I'm not aware of any JSF components that provide either of these 
features. For the first one, you might like to try wrapping the target 
JSF component in a div with explicit size and overflow attributes:
   div style=width:400; height:400; overflow:scroll
 t:tree2 .../
   /div
I haven't tried this myself but it looks like it might work.

An IFrame also presents an embedded scrollable area. However an iframe 
always needs to pull its content from some other URL, so you'd need to 
write a separate page containing your tree component. And as this will 
act within the same session but JSF1.1 doesn't support the concept of 
separate windows within a single session I think this will lead to 
major headaches; I expect the iframe page access will effectively 
discard the original page's view when it sees the same session accessing

a different view-url.
   ...
 iframe src=/width=400 height=400 scrolling=auto
 /iframe
   ...

Having a t:splitPanel component for the second option would be very 
cool. However I suspect it would be quite a lot of complicated 
javascript to implement (if it's possible at all). I'm willing to try to

implement this if someone will fund the development :-). Or maybe 
there's some existing open-source code out there that can be used. I 
would suggest looking at available JSP tag libraries; I think a standard

JSP tag would work fine with JSF tags in this case (as long as there is 
no parent component with rendersChildren=true?).

Regards,

Simon

AW: AW: Problem with selectBooleanCheckbox inside dataTable

2005-12-07 Thread Matthias Kahlau

Hi Simon,


thanks for your response. I use one UISelectBoolean component property in my
Backing-Bean, which is bound to the selectBooleanCheckbox used in the
dataTable. Because the dataTable has more than one row, that component or at
least the reference must be shared by all rows internally. Sharing seems to
be the source of the first problem, that all checkboxes are rendered as
selected when the page is redisplayed after a postback where only the last
checkbox was chosen.

It seems that the checkboxes are rerendered with the selected state of the
last checkbox processed (the checkbox of the last row), what can be
prevented by programmatically modifying the selected state of the
UISelectBoolean component in the postback.


And this solution also solved the second problem (runtime error), that
arised when I tried to delete all rows after the page had been redisplayed
with all checkboxes selected. The table used in the validation phase must
have become out of sync with the data rendered previously. But I can't
reproduce the error in the moment.


Regards,
Matthias

 Betreff: Re: AW: Problem with selectBooleanCheckbox inside dataTable


 Hi,

 When a table contains editable components, the value list is fetched
 at the following times:

 (initial page view occurs)
 * during the rendering phase
 (postback occurs)
 * during validation phase
 (navigate occurs, ie internal forward)
 * during the rendering phase
 

 The data is needed at the validation phase in order to determine whether
 ValueChangeEvent events should be queued. The same list is retained by
 the UIData and used during the update-model phase when the validated
 values are pushed to the backing objects from the value list. A new list
 must be fetched before rendering, however, as the list may change as a
 result of processing during update-model or invoke-application phases.

 When a table contains editable components, the table fetched during the
 validation phase must contain exactly the same elements (and in exactly
 the same order) as was present during the previous rendering phase. If
 this isn't true then all sorts of confusion can occur.

 Are your checkbox components bound to some backing list whose size has
 changed? I can't see why that would happen, but it would explain some of
 your symptoms. The table is iterating through all its rows, fetching the
 corresponding element from the value list for that row, and then trying
 to determine whether the submitted value is different from the value of
 the corresponding model object. If the list is too short, then of course
 an exception will occur while trying to fetch the matching model object.

 Regards,

 Simon

  Hi!
 
  Ok, it seems that the rendering behavior of the
 selectBooleanCheckbox (with
  immediate = false) inside a dataTable is how to expect from an
  EditableValueHolder, and I have to call either
 setSubmittedValue(null) or
  setSelectedState(false) to prevent the checkboxes from beeing
 selected if
  the page is redisplayed, dependent on the immediate state of the
  commandButton:
 
  - setSubmittedValue(null) if commandButton is immediate = true
 - submitted
  value is rendered if not null
  - setSelectedState(false) if commandButton is immediate = false
 
 
  But what I don't really understand is, why the problem described (all
  checkboxes are selected when the page is redisplayed, and runtime error
  after deleting this selection) only happens when the checkbox
 of the last
  shown row has been selected, and not when any other checkbox had been
  selected. Any ideas?

  Hi!
 
 
  I encounter a strange behavior of selectBooleanCheckbox
 component-binding
  inside a dataTable. When I select the checkbox in the last row
 and call an
  action method to delete the selected row, the page is
 redisplayed with all
  the remaining checkboxes selected, that had been deselected before.
 
  This happens only if I select the last row/checkbox, not if I
  select another
  row and press delete. I don't modify any component state in the
  application.
  This behavior is independent of setting the
 selectBooleanCheckbox or the
  delete commandButton to false/true.
 
  The behavior described doesn't happen in any possible case, but
  always when
  the options are shown the first time and I select the last one
 and press
  delete.
 
  If this happens, and the checkboxes are all redisplayed in
 selected state,
  and I press delete, a runtime error is thrown because a row is
  unavailable:

Re: Simplifying column expression

Unless you're using some sort of substitution technology like
facelets, it probably won't be trivial.   You'll need to subclass
UIColumn to create MyColumn, and then either read the

my:columnheader component create a header facet on its parent
UIColumn on creation.  At least, that's my understanding of the
situation.

Re: Value is not a valid option

Can you create a simple example and open a JIRA issue?

One thing you can do to investigate the error is set a breakpoint
wherever the Value is not a valid option message is generated.  This
appears to be in
api - javax.faces.component.UISelectOne.validateValue()
Line 54 in yesterday's svn.

Re: Execute method automatically after page has been loaded and shown to user

First off, note that this is a filter, not a listener.   That means
you can open before the request and close after the request, for
whatever meaning open and close have to your database layer.

As for leaving connections open and dealing with timeouts, that's
going to depend on your database layer.

 -If no timeout happens, isn't it a bad approach to let the connection open

 Andy,

 There's many ways to do this.

 Some ways you could do it:

 1) Use the Shale ViewController stuff to define your backing bean to
 be the controlling bean for your page.  It'd be able to receive events
 like pre-render and post-render.

 2) Create a phase listener that ran at pre-render and post-render phase.

 3) Use a servlet filter -- this is how I manage my database
 connections, but I have need for my database connection to be active
 at all phases of JSF.

  When the user opens the first page, this page should be shown normally (and

  Is there a possibility to do that?

[OT] myfaces, a portal, and ajax

2005-12-07 Thread Ryan Wynn

I have a working myfaces application working inside websphere portal
5.1.  I thought it would be cool if I ajaxized my portlet with dojo. 
This way I don't suffer from the entire page refresh which in a portal
can be expensive.

So I overwrote the myfaces renderer for forms.  My new form renderer
adds one thing, an onsubmit value of 'return dojoSubmit(this);'

what dojoSubmit does is this

function dojoSubmit(form) {
dojo.require(dojo.io.*);
dojo.io.bind({
url: form.action,
load: function(type, evaldObj)
{
marker = span id=\pageId\;
startI = evaldObj.indexOf(marker);
start = evaldObj.substring(startI + marker.length);
endI = start.indexOf(/span!--end--);
page = start.substring(0, endI);
document.getElementById(pageId).innerHTML=page;
   },
formNode: form,
mimetype: text/plain, // get plain text, don't eval()
transport: XMLHTTPTransport
});

return false;
}


So in a nutshell I am rerouting the form submission to use ajax and
updating the content of a predetermined span with encapsulates the
page.  Pardon the viscious hack of the portal response using indexOf
and substring.

Anyway, this works as intended.  The span gets updated with the
correct html and it looks far better than an entire page refresh.  My
problem is that setting the innerHtml does not seem to be
reinterpreting embedded javascript and stylesheet references. 
innerHtml was the easiest way to accomplish what I wanted, I don't
argue it may not be the best.  Can anyone help explain to me why if my
new html content has script src=x/script that script will not be
interpreted using innerHtml?

If the page is refreshed entirely everything (the javascript,
stylesheets) work fine.  It just seems to be a problem when I use
innerHtml.

Thanks,
Ryan

Re: Bean definition question faces-config.xml

2005-12-07 Thread Aleksei Valikov


Hi.

I wonder if it is possible to declare the constructor of a bean in 
faces-config.xml similar to using constructor-arg in spring's 
configuration files.
The idea behind this is, that I'd like to inject a bean into my 
application and use a referenced bean already in the constructor.
As far as I know and encountered, first the default constructor is 
called, then the referenced beans are injected by using the 
corresponding setters, and finally the bean is used in the application 
depending of the scope.

Or is possible to use/reference Spring beans in faces-config.xml?


Of course you can use/reference Spring beans in faces-config.xml. Just 
use Spring's variable resolver.


variable-resolverorg.springframework.web.jsf.DelegatingVariableResolver/variable-resolver

If you want to declare your bean in Spring context but make it available 
as a managed bean (for instance, to define bean scoping), use proxies.


Bye.

Opening New Window

Hey All,I think I know the answer to this, but I'd like to get confirmation.I have a 'desktop-like' page with icons that users click on to open new windows. These windows are more than popup windows, they are full-blown pages with tabbed interfaces, etc. I'm currently under the impression that I have to handle opening a new window from my desktop page 'outside' the standard JSF navigation mechanism (using 
faces-config.xml) and so, am using _javascript_ to achieve this.I have no problem doing this, I just wanted to make sure that I hadn't missed something. I consider it a benefit to have all possible navigation branches in an xml file - making it easier to obtain a graphical representation of page flow.
Thanks,Bobby

Re: Opening New Window

If you have a look at Jenia4Faces, there is a popup library that is
meant to integrate child windows into the JSF framework. You may want
to have a look to see if that fits your needs. If you are concerned
about multiple windows interfering with each other in a server saved
state you may also want to look at JBoss-Seam for their conversation
state support that allows windows to have their own state on the
server (it is not quite that simple, but it is the basic affect).

Re: Simplifying column expression

Hi,

i think there is non need of a my:column. It should suffice just to have

component and add this as facet 'header' to the parent component.

 Unless you're using some sort of substitution technology like

Hey Andrew, Thanks for the response, (jenia looks interesting) but my current problem space is more basic. I'm mainly concerned with the mechanics of opening a 'new' browser window. Once the window is open it is largely independent - in the sense that it no longer needs to communicate with the 'desktop' page. Analogous to opening eclipse from a desktop.

disabled .vs readonly

Hello,Can someone help me make a distinction between the disabled and readonly tags? After some testing I've come to the conclusion that the only real difference is that the 'readonly' attrib will disable an input field without affecting its visual properties, whereas the 'disabled' attrib (a pass-through attrib) WILL affect the visual props.
Interestingly, the 'readonly' attrib seems to have no affect on several of the tags I tested with (ie. selectBooleanCheckbox, selectOneMenu, etc)Any further clarification would be great. I'm trying to determine the appropriate place to use these tags.
Thanks,Bobby

Re: Opening New Window

Any of these should work:

h:outputLink target=_new value=urlh:outputText
value=text/h:outputLink
h:commandLink target=_new value=link name/
h:commandButton target=_new value=button text type=submit/

I am not sure what output the target creates. If it uses target then
beware of XHTML strict as the target attribute is only to be found in
the transitional (or loose?). On a side note, any know why XHTML
strict is removing all frame, iframe, and window support? What is the
recommended way in XHTML for including sub-pages?

Re: tree2 and the icons

As I mentioned I tried that but didn't worked.

After further trials, I am able to see my icons if I set
clientSideToggle=false. If it is not set, I am not seeing the icons
that I specify.

Even with setting it to false, the icons are correctly working. I have
defined one icon for expanded mode and one for the collapsed mode.
Initially I am seeing the collapsed icon correctly, when I expand the
tree node, I am seeing the expanded icon correctly. But when I collapse
the node again, I am still seeing the expanded icon.

Re: disabled .vs readonly

Many thick client controls have the same properties. The usual
debate/answer that I find is this:

1) if the control should never be edited, mark it as read-only
2) if the control is temporarily disabled (i.e. you need to select a
radio button to enable the associated controls), then use disabled.

In general, a read-only controls is something to display data, not a
form control for submitting data. Since radio buttons and check boxes
are rarely ever used for display only, then it may make sense that
they do not support a read-only state.

 Hello,

 Can someone help me make a distinction between the disabled and readonly
 tags? After some testing I've come to the conclusion that the only real
 difference is that the 'readonly' attrib will disable an input field without
 affecting its visual properties, whereas the 'disabled' attrib (a
 pass-through attrib) WILL affect the visual props.

 Interestingly, the 'readonly' attrib seems to have no affect on several of
 the tags I tested with (ie. selectBooleanCheckbox, selectOneMenu, etc)

 Any further clarification would be great. I'm trying to determine the
 appropriate place to use these tags.

 Thanks,

As I mentioned I tried that but didn't worked.

After further trials, I am able to see my icons if I set
clientSideToggle=false. If it is not set, I am not seeing the icons
that I specify.

Even with setting it to false, the icons are correctly working. I have defined
one icon for expanded mode and one for the collapsed mode. Initially I am
seeing the collapsed icon correctly, when I expand the tree node, I am seeing
the expanded icon correctly. But when I collapse the node again, I am still
seeing the expanded icon.

Re: Opening New Window

That is correct. The navigation just says where and if it should be a
redirect or not, it will output the content on the current stream.
There is no way that the server can target a new window for example
(without javascript in the onload). The browser must open a new
window, then load a given URL in that window. Since it is browser
controlled, the JSF navigation class has no control over this, the
control is handled by the JSF controls.

As for the target attribute, I found the reference at this site's
documentation, it may be incorrect:

Partial page refresh in JSF?

2005-12-07 Thread Jeremy Sager









Hi guys 



Thanks in advance for your answer to this question



My company is trying to put together a web client application
using JSF that has the look and feel of the Eclipse Rich Client Platform.



While weve had a good bit of success so far, Ive
run into an issue that Im hoping you guys can give me some advice on.



Basically, I need to do partial page refreshes. I have a
page with three subpages on it that I am controlling the layout of with tiles,
although I am not tied to tiles at this point if it isnt the right
answer.



I need to be able to click on a hyperlink on one of the
subpages and initiate a refresh action on another one of the subpages without
refreshing the parent page, because two of my subpages require significant
database action and hence take some time to load, and a user might typically
want to click on a decent number of links in quick succession. (For those of
you familiar with RCP, clicking a link in the view opens up a new editor in the
editor pane).



I was hoping that you guys could throw some advice my way on
how to refresh the pages in a subview or tile without refreshing the whole darn
thing.

Re: tree2 and the icons

2005-12-07 Thread Sean Schofield

  That works with the icons that are in the jar file. What if I want to use
 my own icons which are not in the jar file but are in a folder ?

Use the @imageLocation attribute.  You can also override the
javascript for the client side toggle using @javascriptLocation if you
really need to.

  The other problem is that once a node is expanded and the expanded icon is
 displayed it doesn't go back to the collapsed icon when the node is
 collapsed.

That doesn't sound right.  Did you try the simple examples first? 
That's my recommendation to people who have trouble.  If its working
in the simple example and not your own example then you know its not a
bug just a configuration issue.

  the colgroup element does not show up in the rendered html at all... as
  it if is ignored...
  i tried to remove the f:verbatim tags too, and it will still not work
  does anyone know why is that?

I think this will work: try putting stuff inside h:column elements..

and how can i set he column widths?
 

Also, adding style class elements like
h:dataTable columnClasses=searchTable_Column .. will get you the 
style you want..(make sure you declare the style sheet up top).



  thanks

Thanks for the answer Geeta
Adding them in the h:column will show up in the html file, but it 
won't give the results i want. the table looks weird if i do that...


I think the style suggestion is the way to go, but...now this turned 
into a style question!

I hope you can still help me with that!
so how do i specify the width of individual column in the style ?

thanks

Here's an example from

t:dataTable
id=items
var=assignment

  
 value=#{assignmentList.assignments}
rowCountVar=rowsCount
  
 headerClass=searchTable_Header
footerClass=searchTable_Footer

   h:column

   f:facet
name=header

   
   h:outputText
value=Patient

   /f:facet

   h:outputText
value=#{assignment.contactName}
/

   /h:column

   h:column

   f:facet
name=header

   
   h:outputText
value=Activity/Call
/

   /f:facet

   h:outputText
value=#{assignment.urlForDisplay}
/

   /h:column
/t:dataTable


My style sheet has:
.searchTable_Column_Centered
{
font-family
: Arial,
Helvetica, verdana, Geneva, sans-serif;
font-size:
12px;
background-color:
#FF;
  color:
#00;
  padding:
2;
  text-align:

  border:
none;
}
.searchTable_Column {
font-family
: Arial,

font-size:
12px;
font-weight:
bold;
background-color:
#FF;
  color:
#00;
  padding:
2;
  text-align:
left;
  border:
none;
}

(You should be able to add something
like width:760px
above to get the width you want).

And up top in my layout.jsp (I use tiles):

link
rel=stylesheet
  
 href=h:outputText
value=#{facesContext.externalContext.requestContextPath}/style/basic.css

  All,
 
  I am having problems when trying to deploy JSR 168 portlets (built using

  It could very well be a problem with IBM supporting the MyFaces JSF
  Implementation. As far as I know, the RAD tool used for creating
portlets
  supports only SUN RI. The web.xml supplied by the RAD tool explicitly

 I have had success with this combination.  I am using myfaces with portal
 5.1.
 I started in RAD by creating an empty JSR-168 portlet (using the
 wizard).  Then you won't get all the sun/ibm jsf stuff imported.  My

h:selectOneMenu question

2005-12-07 Thread Kurt Edegger

Hi everybody,

I'd like to use a dropdown menu in my jsp page, therefor I added 

h:selectOneMenu id=selectModifier value=#{bean.currentItem}
  f:selectItems value=#{bean.itemList} /
/h:selectOneMenu 

to my page. The bean provides getter and setters for both properties, whereby
currentItem is of type SelectItem and itemList is an ArrayList containing
SelectItems. 

Just a static example copied from jsftags-guide into my bean class:

private SelectItem currentItem;

private ArrayList itemList;


public SelectItem getCurrentItem() {
  return new SelectItem(4runner,Toyota 4Runner,Toyota 4Runner - suv);
}

public void setCurrentItem(SelectItem currentItem) {
  this.currentItem = currentItem;
}

public ArrayList getItemList() {
  this.itemList=new ArrayList();
  this.itemList.add(new SelectItem(accord,Honda Accord,Honda Accord -
sedan));
  this.itemList.add(new SelectItem(4runner,Toyota 4Runner,Toyota 4Runner -
suv));
  this.itemList.add(new SelectItem(nissan-z,Nissan Z350,Nissan Z350 -
sports));
  return itemList;
}

public void setItemList(ArrayList itemList) {
  this.itemList = itemList;
}

But whenever I try to render the page, I'll get an
'java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Value is no String and component
treetestformdb:selectModifier does not have a Converter' Exception.
IMHO the returned SelectItem should be rendered as a String automatically
without the need to attach a custom converter.

What am I'm missing here? I'm banging my head for an hour now,

Kurt

I believe #{bean.currentItem} has to return a string that matches

And when an item in the list is selected, that property will be updated 
to contain the getValue() value of the chosen SelectItem, not a

Simpler exprssions for i18n

2005-12-07 Thread Aleksei Valikov


Hi.

As I saw, everyone's writing something like #{myBundle['myi18n.key']}, 
which is quite awkward. Would't it be easier to have specialized syntax 
for that? Say, $myi18n.key or whatever. This would not only simplify 
page syntax but also allow optimize access to localized values - 
application could compile $key into ultra-high-performance value bindings.


Any comments on that?

Geeta... thank you for your input one more time...
After some investigation, it seems this is not acheivable using stylesheets.
see this:

http://www.notestips.com/80256B3A007F2692/1/TAIO5WFG7K

and more specifically the part where it says:

The problem is that this affects ALL cells, individual columns cannot 
be targeted. The solution is not inherently CSS based but HTML based, 
the way to solve this issue is by inserting the underused colgroup and 
col tags into the table markup.



So there is no way to control the column widths individually using the 
css style...

so we're back to square one... I have to do it using this approach:

colgroup
col width=xxx
col width=xxx
/colgroup

So now i need to figure out how to get this to appear in my html table.
Any solution or work around is appreciated.

thanks

please make sure that you inluded the myfaces libraries to your webapp, since

The following links explain how to get started with myfaces (which is just an

panelTabbedPane with dynamic-tabs

2005-12-07 Thread Harald Müller

Hi!

I'd like to use the panelTabbedPane and create the tabs dynamically (reading 
from a xml-file).

I'm getting a list of objects from my bean and for each list-item a new tab 
should be
generated.

My jsf-code looks like this:

t:panelTabbedPane bgcolor=#CC 
c:forEach items=${homeBean.uiData} var=tabDataValue
  c:set var=tabData scope=request value=${tabDataValue}/
  t:panelTab id=tab1 label=#{tabData.tabName} 
h:outputText value=#{tabData.tabName} / 
  /t:panelTab
/c:forEach
/t:panelTabbedPane

I think it's not a good idea to mix jstl with jsf ... so i tried the dataList 
from tomahawk too.

Something like:

t:panelTabbedPane bgcolor=#CC 
t:dataList value=${homeBean.uiData} var=tabData
  t:panelTab id=tab1 label=#{tabData.tabName} rendered=true
h:outputText value=#{tabData.tabName} / 
  /t:panelTab
/t:dataList

  Thanks for the answer Geeta
  Adding them in the h:column will show up in the html file, but it
  won't give the results i want. the table looks weird if i do that...
 
  I think the style suggestion is the way to go, but...now this turned
  into a style question!
  I hope you can still help me with that!
  so how do i specify the width of individual column in the style ?
 Here's an example from my jsp:
 t:dataTable id=items var=assignment
value=#{assignmentList.assignments}  
rowCountVar=rowsCount
headerClass=searchTable_Header  
footerClass=searchTable_Footer
 
columnClasses=searchTable_Column,searchTable_Column_Centered

h:column
f:facet name=header
h:outputText value=Patient Name /
/f:facet
h:outputText value=#{assignment.contactName}  
/

/h:column
h:column
f:facet name=header
h:outputText value=Activity/Call /
/f:facet
h:outputText  
value=#{assignment.urlForDisplay} /

/h:column
/t:dataTable
  My style sheet has:
.searchTable_Column_Centered {
font-family : Arial, Helvetica, verdana, Geneva, sans-serif;
font-size: 12px;
background-color: #FF;
color: #00;
padding: 2;
text-align: center;
border: none;
}
.searchTable_Column {
font-family : Arial, Helvetica, verdana, Geneva, sans-serif;
font-size: 12px;
font-weight: bold;
background-color: #FF;
color: #00;
padding: 2;
text-align: left;
border: none;
}
 (You should be able to add something like width:760px above to get the  
width you want).

 And up top in my layout.jsp (I use tiles):
 link rel=stylesheet
href=h:outputText  
value=#{facesContext.externalContext.requestContextPath}/style/basic.css  
/ /

  Hth,
Geeta



Geeta... thank you for your input one more time...
After some investigation, it seems this is not acheivable using  
stylesheets.

see this:

http://www.notestips.com/80256B3A007F2692/1/TAIO5WFG7K

and more specifically the part where it says:

The problem is that this affects ALL cells, individual columns cannot  
be targeted. The solution is not inherently CSS based but HTML based,  
the way to solve this issue is by inserting the underused colgroup and  
col tags into the table markup.



So there is no way to control the column widths individually using the  
css style...

so we're back to square one... I have to do it using this approach:

 colgroup
 col width=xxx
 col width=xxx
 /colgroup

So now i need to figure out how to get this to appear in my html table.
Any solution or work around is appreciated.

thanks



I think he posted a good solution for your needs. As I understand you want  
to set the width for each column to a different size... right? I think the  
post before was correct:


columnClasses=searchTable_Column,searchTable_Column_Centered,  
,last_styleColumnPreviousHasNoStyle


and now you set on each stylesheet class a different size:

.searchTable_Column{
width: 10px;
etc...
}
.searchTable_Column_Centered {
width: 100px;
etc...
}
.last_styleColumnPreviousHasNoStyle{
width: 20px;
etc...
}

This stylesheet and attribute columnClasses will render a table with  
following behaviour:


first column has the width: 10px
second column has the width: 100px
third coulmn has no stylesheet defined
last column has the width 20px

I'm using this approach in my templates for each dataColumn... This works  
fine in myfaces.


The article to which you are referring repects the domino software needs  
and shows a workaround for domino what has nothing to do with myfaces  
because myfaces supports style sheet definitions for each column in a  
table...


-- snip ---
.tableformat3 td{
padding:15px;
width:100px;
}

The problem is that this affects ALL cells, individual columns cannot be  
targeted. The solution is not inherently CSS based but HTML based, the way  
to solve this issue is by inserting the underused colgroup and col  
tags into the table markup.

-- snip --

this is similar to the following myfaces column attribute definition:

columnClasses=searchTable_Column

now all columns are rendered by size 10px because each column uses this  
one style sheet defined.


I hope this will help you understanding the myfaces columns style  
attribute. All comma seperated style definitions will be rendered for each  
individual coulumn and not for all columns.


Thats the same like you would write:

colgroup
  col width=column1_Width_xxx

RE: disabled .vs readonly

2005-12-07 Thread Yee CN









I believe that the real issue is that HTML
check boxes and radio buttons dont know about the readonly
attribute. So you can only set the disabled attribute if you want
to prevent user input. That will grey out the check box, which I really hated.
This is a different behavior from text input, which can be both readonly and
disabled. 



I see that as a limitation of HTML, not
JSF. I have been wishing we could have a readonly checkbox in HTML for years!



Please correct me if I am wrong.



Regards,

Yee

Many thick client controls have the same properties. The usual
debate/answer that I find is this:

1) if the control should never be edited, mark it as read-only



2) if the control is temporarily disabled (i.e. you need to select a
radio button to enable the associated controls), then use disabled.

In general, a read-only controls is something to display data, not a
form control for submitting data. Since radio buttons and check boxes 
are rarely ever used for display only, then it may make sense that
they do not support a read-only state.






Ah! But they do support it. According to the selectBooleanCheckbox
documentation (found at http://java.sun.com/j2ee/javaserverfaces/1.1_01/docs/tlddocs/)
the readonly attrib is a:
 Flag indicating that this component will prohibit changes by the user.
The element may receive focus unless it has also been disabled.

I'm guessing this is a bug. 

The statement above indicates that the disabled attrib will also
prevent focus on the component (in addition to modifying its visual props). 

So maybe that's it... readonly allows focus and doesn't modify
visual properties, disabled does not allow focus and does change
visual props... 

Any further comments or clarifications are welcome.

Re: t:dataTable, t:dataScroller and large datasets

2005-12-07 Thread Catalin Kormos

Thanks Simon for your reply.It sounds trivial, but i can't get it to work. I can't seem to find the  place where to store the sorted column's name and the sorting type,  ascent/descent. Looks like every time the data is fetched out before  the sorting options are established, or the first sorting change  doesn't have any affect, like, I do click on a column, but the sorting  doesn't take place, then i use the data scroller to move to another  page to see that the sorting did happen I would greatly appreciate  an advice.Thanks,  CatalinSimon Kitching [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:  Catalin Kormos wrote: Hi there,  Did any of you guys successfuly managed to use this approach also with   to allow sorting the pages data by columns?&

  It doesn't look trivial to me...just let me know if it is realy. If not  i would realy appreciate a wiki page covering this also.It is trivial. Sorting with the "paging" approach suggested in the wiki works just like sorting with a complete in-memory list.As long as the method that is invoked to return the specified dataset returns the requested data block in the requested order, it all "just works".Regards,Simon

Re: panelTabbedPane with dynamic-tabs

Try using the the binding attribute with 
t:panelTabbedPane .  This will allow you to 
programmatically add or substract each tab.

Subject: panelTabbedPane with dynamic-tabs  
To: users@myfaces.apache.org

Hi!

I'd like to use the panelTabbedPane and create the tabs 
dynamically (reading from a xml-file).

I'm getting a list of objects from my bean and for each 
list-item a new tab should be
generated.

My jsf-code looks like this:

t:panelTabbedPane bgcolor=#CC 
c:forEach items=${homeBean.uiData} var=tabDataValue
  c:set var=tabData scope=request 
value=${tabDataValue}/
  t:panelTab id=tab1 label=#{tabData.tabName} 
   h:outputText value=#{tabData.tabName} / 
  /t:panelTab
/c:forEach
/t:panelTabbedPane

I think it's not a good idea to mix jstl with jsf ... so i 
tried the dataList from tomahawk too.

Something like:

t:panelTabbedPane bgcolor=#CC 
t:dataList value=${homeBean.uiData} var=tabData
  t:panelTab id=tab1 label=#{tabData.tabName} 
rendered=true
   h:outputText value=#{tabData.tabName} / 
  /t:panelTab
/t:dataList
/t:panelTabbedPane

But I'm just getting weird results ... and nothing seems to 
work.

What am I doing wrong? ... Thanks for advise!

Re: h:selectOneMenu question

2005-12-07 Thread mail

Simon,

thank you for your answer, I modified the getter/setter to handle
SelectItem.getValue().toString() instead of the selectItem itself.
But had you ever the chance to take a look at the jsftags-guide examples
(http://www.exadel.com/tutorial/jsf/jsftags-guide.html)? 

They are using the SelectItems directly. 
Where's the difference?

  /h:selectOneMenu

  currentItem is of type SelectItem and itemList is an ArrayList containing

 I believe #{bean.currentItem} has to return a string that matches 
 SelectItem.getValue() of one of the SelectItems in the list.
 
 And when an item in the list is selected, that property will be updated 
 to contain the getValue() value of the chosen SelectItem, not a 
 reference to the complete SelectItem object.

Problem with two input fields in a custom textbox.

2005-12-07 Thread wasim bhatti

Greetings  i have developed a custom component with two input fields but it is not working properly. The problem isthat, in decode method when we use to call setSubmittedValue(), we can only pass one argument in it. Then it updates only one value in the manage bean. The question is how can i update two values in decode method.  is it a limitation of custom components that we can use only one input field in one custom component?Regards  Wasim Bhatti
