Hi All I have a jsf page coded like this
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en" xmlns:ui="http://java.sun.com/jsf/facelets" xmlns:h="http://java.sun.com/jsf/html" xmlns:f="http://java.sun.com/jsf/core" xmlns:t="http://myfaces.apache.org/tomahawk"> <ui:composition> <h:dataTable id="utx_table" var="investment" value="#{investmentList.investments}"> <h:column> <h:outputText value="#{investment.name}" id="ut_name"/> </h:column> </h:dataTable> </ui:composition> </html> The managed bean "investmentList" has session scope, the list investments contains 5 items. The 1st time I open this page the generated html contains .... <table id="utx_table"> .... However, if i navigate somewhere and return to this page, the html now contains .... <table id="utx_table:5"> .... I suspect that the unique id generator does not reset when rerendering the page. Does anyone know of a way to force it to? I need to keep session scope on the bean. This is actually a trimmed down version of a page which contained a form and navigation buttons. I need to access the table via javascript. If a form submit is used to exit the page, the next entry to this page always contains the 1st version i.e. <table id="utx_table"> Terry East -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/force-resetting-of-id-sequence-generator-tf2039692.html#a5613236 Sent from the MyFaces - Users forum at Nabble.com.
