[ http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MYFACES-224?page=comments#action_64249 ] Alex Mayer commented on MYFACES-224: ------------------------------------
I wonder, that you found everyting working. I added a message to my sort-class which is printed out everytime the sort-method is called. So with above code the sort-method is just called once. I changed the preserveDataModel to false which did not change a thing. The sort method is only called once regardless which value is applied to preserveDataModel. The x:columns-tag adds to my opinion to every column the same id. That is why EVERY column looks the same except the applied value for the outputText like this: <th><input type="checkbox" name="_id0:data:_id3:0:_id5" /><a href="#" onclick="clear__5Fid0();document.forms['_id0'].elements['_id0:_link_hidden_'].value='_id0:data:_id3:0:_id6';if(document.forms['_id0'].onsubmit){document.forms['_id0'].onsubmit();}document.forms['_id0'].submit();return false;" id="_id0:data:_id3:0:_id6">header1↑</a></th><th><input type="checkbox" name="_id0:data:_id3:0:_id5" /><a href="#" onclick="clear__5Fid0();document.forms['_id0'].elements['_id0:_link_hidden_'].value='_id0:data:_id3:0:_id6';if(document.forms['_id0'].onsubmit){document.forms['_id0'].onsubmit();}document.forms['_id0'].submit();return false;" id="_id0:data:_id3:0:_id6">header2</a></th><th><input type="checkbox" name="_id0:data:_id3:0:_id5" /><a href="#" onclick="clear__5Fid0();document.forms['_id0'].elements['_id0:_link_hidden_'].value='_id0:data:_id3:0:_id6';if(document.forms['_id0'].onsubmit){document.forms['_id0'].onsubmit();}document.forms['_id0'].submit();return false;" id="_id0:data:_id3:0:_id6">header3</a></th> The point is, that when I click on a commandSortHeader-Link in the table, nothing happens. The sort-method is not called. And the page isn't rendered again either. Internet Explorer is announcing a javascript error whereas firefox doesn't (but I don't have the js-debugger console in firefox installed) > x:dataTable, x:columns and x:commandSortHeader not sorting the data > ------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: MYFACES-224 > URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MYFACES-224 > Project: MyFaces > Type: Bug > Versions: 1.0.9 beta > Environment: tomcat5.5, java5 update 3, > Reporter: Alex Mayer > > The x:commandSortHeader is not working if nested inside of x:columns (which > is nested in x:dataTable) > my code is like this: > <x:dataTable id="data" value="#{manager.sortList.dataObjectsToSort}" var="b" > rows="4" > sortColumn="#{manager.sortList.sort}" > sortAscending="#{manager.sortList.ascending}" > preserveSort="true" preserveDataModel="true"> > > <x:columns value="#{manager.headerStrings}" var="column"> > <f:facet name="header"> > <h:panelGroup> > <h:selectBooleanCheckbox /> > <x:commandSortHeader columnName="#{column}" > arrow="true"> > <h:outputText value="#{column}" /> > </x:commandSortHeader> > </h:panelGroup> > </f:facet> > <h:outputText value="#{b[column]}" /> > </x:columns> > </x:dataTable> > in case I use a component-binding for the x:dataTable to generate a > corresponding table in a bean, everything works fine. > I believe this is, because the x:columns-tag assigns to every childcomponent > of type commandSortHeader the same id. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
