>I am trying to use the disabled attribute on some inputText boxes in my >application. However, everytime I try to use a binding like this ><h:inputText disabled="#{mybackingBean.disabled}" />
In both JSP and JSF, #{backingBeanThatDoesNotExist.propertyThatDoesNotExist} will not throw an exception; it will default to 'false'. Whenever I find myself in your situation I double check expression path. >nothing happens. disabled is a Boolean field in the backing bean. I assume >it would auto translate to a string, but it doesnt appear to. I then tried >using JSTl to set a value a page scoped variable ><c:set name="disabled" value="true"/> >This does not work either when I change my input box to this ><h:inputText disabled="#{disabled}"/> Perhaps you have not included the c taglib header in the JSP file? The page will silently skip the c:set tag in this case. Dennis Byrne
