Partial page refresh in JSF?

[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 we’ve had a good bit of success so far, I’ve run into an issue that I’m 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 isn’t 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.   Jeremy Sager Data Communications Product Manager Chesapeake System Solutions 410.356.6805 x120 [EMAIL PROTECTED]
