commandLink not working: FaceTrace

[Gregg Bolinger]

I have a page where the commandLink isn't triggering the associated actionListener.  The link on the page is identical to the link on another similar page.  They are just using different managed beans.


<t:dataTable var="category"
                    binding="#{SubCategoryAdminBean.categoryData}"
                    value="#{SubCategoryAdminBean.categories}">
                    <t:column>
                        <t:commandLink id="editCatLink"
                            actionListener="#{SubCategoryAdminBean.editCategory}">
                            <t:outputText value="#{category.categoryName}" />
                            <t:updateActionListener
                                property="#{SubCategoryAdminBean.currentCategory}"
                                value="#{category}" />
                        </t:commandLink>
                    </t:column>
                </t:dataTable>


I started using FacesTrace to see if I could see any useful information.  And what I've discovered is that when processing the page that works I get the following key/value:

categoryAdminForm:_link_hidden_       --     categoryAdminForm:_idJsp15:1:_idJsp18

However, when I click the link on the page that doesn't work I get

categoryAdminForm:_link_hidden_       --

No value.  Problem is, I have no clue what that tells me.  Anyone?

Thanks.
