[ http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MYFACES-27?page=comments#action_66840 ] Bruno Aranda commented on MYFACES-27: -------------------------------------
#1 do we want to fork JSCookMenu for the purpose of resolving this issue I think it is a good thing for the menu to submit forms, thus enhancing the flexibility of this component, not limiting it to just navigation. #2 how is the form id handed over to the menu I've heard two possibilities here and correct me if i am wrong. One (A) is to "autodetect" the parent form of the component and use it as the menu's form. The other possibility (B) is to include a property formId in the component wich points to the form the menu has to submit when an item is clicked. The former is the solution proposed in MYFACES-259 and a patch is included. I prefer the solution A, because you don't have to worry if the menu is inside or not of a form, and associate it to a form using an attribute. However, the solution B adds more flexibility and everything is already done, so maybe we should stay with that one. #3 should it be possible to submit different forms so we would have to configure the form id on menu item level Thats an interesting idea, although I don't think that such a level of sophistication is needed. Is someone thinking to use the menu like this?

This cause that an > action, which should store data from the view, is executed after the > apply_request_values-phase instead of the application-execute-phase.
