Craig, Due to reasons I don't quite understand it started working. I tried to find out what I did that changed it, but unfortunately I can't backtrack the cause. But, fortunately, it works!

If you are doing that, it's not going to work (but you should look at the Dialog capabilities for techniques of maintaining state across requests). If that is not your situation, could you please post snippets of your faces-config.xml describing the managed bean that you have defined? Thank you, > joost > > Craig
