The main problem is that it's not going to the next page; it's displaying the original page. The next page doesn't need the bean, but it would be nice to go to the next page. If I copy-paste the <h:commandLink> to be outside the dataTable, then I get to the next page fine. But, for some reason, if I click on the same <h:commandLink> from within the dataTable, the original page gets displayed again with an empty bean. Usually, this would be a sign that there was an error encountered (although the component tree should then be restored). But I can't see that an error was encountered, since <h:messages> doesn't show anything. Also, I'm sure that the outcome was spelled right, since copying and pasting it outside of the dataTable works.
Oh, well, just wondering if someone else had a similar experience. I'll have to trap the MyFaces conversation in the debugger to see what it thinks is going on.... - Brendan -----Original Message----- From: Mike Kienenberger [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, August 15, 2005 2:29 PM To: MyFaces Discussion Subject: Re: Using <h:commandLink> inside <t:column> Does it work if you change your backing bean to session scope? If so, the solution might be to t:saveState your backing bean. Not sure why the link isn't working, but if it depends on the datatable data, that could be related to the above.
