I tried using the suggestion below but it's problematic. I don't want to change the selected index manually, as in this case, I'll need to update ALL methods in my beans to set the selected index. For example: If I have 2 tabs, tabA and tabB, each has 2 buttons - "save" and "cacnel", bound to the corresponding methods "doSave" and "doCancel", I'll need to update the code you suggested in all 4 doXXX methods (save and cancel in both beans).
I was wondering whether I can tell the panelTabbedPane to remember from which tab it came and return to that instead of always returning to the default tab (which is 0). -----Original Message----- From: Turgay Zengin [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, July 11, 2005 5:28 PM To: MyFaces Discussion Subject: Re: Selecting different tabs in panelTabbedPane Hi, You can change the selectedIndex of your TabbedPane: HtmlPanelTabbedPane panel = (HtmlPanelTabbedPane) getFacesContext().getViewRoot().findComponent("myForm:myPanelTabbedPane" ); panel.setSelectedIndex(0); //or 1,2... Then the tab with the index you just set will be rendered. myForm and myPanelTabbedPane are the id's of the form and tabbed pane on your jsp.
