I'm definitely interested in adding AJAX support to tree2. Perhaps you would like to help me with it? As a starting point you should familiarize yourself with the realtively new TreeWalker stuff if you are not already.
My thinking with the TreeWalker is that it will ultimately be easier to render a portion of the Tree during AJAX requests b/c you can specify a start and end point, etc. Let me know how serious you are about helping and I can make some time for it.

I have used AjaxAnywhere and put a <aa:zoneJSF> tag around the tree. With the Ajax4Jsf library getting some press, it would be interesting to see how to make tree2 have AJAX support built in, or to create a new tree component that extends or is similar to tree2 that would support AJAX natively. I have avoided non-JSF AJAX solutions (like DOJO integration?) as I want the full JSF lifecycle (no hacks) and AjaxAnywhere supports it (and it looks from the website that Ajax4Jsf does as well - and does it better). Who knows, maybe we can scrounge up a team of volunteers to integrate Ajax4Jsf into some new Tomahawk and/or Sandbox components. Once I get some of the projects I am working on, on the side, done I may be interested in looking into this (too bad writing open source code doesn't pay well - or at all). -Andrew PS - I think we need a tax amendment in the US to get tax breaks for open source development On 5/25/06, Vesa Lindfors <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > We have also used tree2 successfully, with more or less similar requirements - but only for small trees (<100 nodes) > In the near future we will also need tree for quite large amount of data (> 10 000 nodes). > Andrew, it would be very usefully, if you could share some of your knowledge of combining the tree2 and Ajax... > Or is there any known plans to add ajax support directly to the MyFaces tree2 component? > ---VLi--- > > > > > On 5/24/06, Andrew Robinson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > What is the problem(s) with tree2?
