Sorry for the double post. After I posted the first one I realized I had
unsubscribed from the mailing list some time ago, so I subscribed and sent the
question again. I thought the one I had sent while unsubscribed wouldn't show
up (it hadn't at that time). My apologies.

Subject: Updating a zone from a property method
I have a zone to show possible errors that might occur in a get* method called
by Tapestry during page rendering to retrieve the value for a property (String
myValue in the example below).
So in this getMyValue() method I set the error message into another property
(@Property String errorMessage) and I call addRender to update the template
zone errorZone, where ${errorMessage} is placed.
My problem is that this call to addRender has no effect: the errorMessage is
not shown. But if I just reload the page it is shown.
Below is a testable example. I'm trying to find out what's the right way to
update a zone from a get* method called by Tapestry during page rendering.
