Simon, Thanks for the response. This is for a shopping cart application with a huge number of possible clients. Also this table has the ability to paginate. The problem with your idea would be that the bean is request scope and gets constructed again when the table is paginated. This calls the method to fill the table from the constructor and the PPR method. And if I check to see that it is a PPR method and not load the data then it isn't loaded whenever it is within a subview for a tab.

Like: public class MyBean { private List<Client> loadedClients; public List<Client> getClients() { if (loadedClients == null) { loadedClients = loadClients(); } return loadedClients; } } On 4/20/07, Daniel King <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Currently I am loading a data table's data in the constructor of my > bean.
