How to refresh parent jsf page from richfaces popup
I have a JSF page with a few fields. I followed this tutorial from BalusC and all is good. I then added RichFaces support to it, which is working fine. I can see popups etc working.
Now what I am trying to do is that once a person has been registered, I want to show the name in the popup (this is also fine I can see that in the popup). Then I want to be able to change that name inside the popup and have that reflected in the parent, but I have no clue how to do that. Please have a look.

Updated bit after Arjan Tijms' suggestion
<h:form id="form2">
<rich:popupPanel id="popup" modal="true" resizeable="true" onmaskclick="#{rich:component('popup')}.hide()">
<f:facet name="header">
<h:outputText value="Simple popup panel" />
</f:facet>
<f:facet name="controls">
<h:outputLink value="#" onclick="#{rich:component('popup')}.hide(); return false;">
X
</h:outputLink>
</f:facet>
<h:panelGrid columns="3">
<h:outputLabel for="username2">Username</h:outputLabel>
<h:inputText id="username2" value="#{register.user.username}" required="true"></h:inputText>
<h:commandButton value="Register" action="#{register.update}">
<f:ajax execute="@form" render=":form" />
</h:commandButton>
</h:panelGrid>
</rich:popupPanel>
</h:form>
Just move the rich:popupPanel
out of the main form, and give it it's own form. If you then submit the form that's in the dialog, the entire page will re-render.
Since the backing bean is view scoped, the previously user data will be retained and only the user name will be updated with whatever you entered in the dialog.
Additionally, you can submit the form via AJAX, give the main form an ID and re-render that.
E.g.
<rich:popupPanel id="popup" modal="true" resizeable="true" onmaskclick="#{rich:component('popup')}.hide()">
<f:facet name="header">Simple popup panel</f:facet>
<h:form id="form2">
<h:outputLabel for="username2" value="Username"/>
<h:inputText id="username2" value="#{register.user.username}" required="true"/>
<a4j:commandButton value="do" action="#{register.update}" render="form" oncomplete="#{rich:component('popup')}.hide()"/>
</h:form>
</rich:popupPanel>
I used the A4J commandButton
here which has a convenient oncomplete
attribute. You can do a similar thing with the onevent
attribute on the standard ajax tag, but using slightly more code.
Do note that if the main form has validation errors, it's without any counter measures impossible to update from the other form (if you run into that, you'd best open a new question for that particular situation).
It's already answered but I had a similar problem. My view has a <rich:dataTable>
to show data and I want to filter the results with chosen items in a <rich:popupPanel>
. I had the same problem: choosing an option didn't update the table (using <a4j:ajax>
event).
The popups are, by default attached to the <body>
tag. So, I added domElementAttachment="form"
to the <rich:popupPanel>
and it worked.
