Focus component cannot focus controls within a subview.
-------------------------------------------------------
Key: TOMAHAWK-581
URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TOMAHAWK-581
Project: MyFaces Tomahawk
Issue Type: Bug
Affects Versions: 1.1.5-SNAPSHOT
Reporter: Chad Lyon
Priority: Minor
Attachments: FocusPatch_08-03-2006.diff
The focus control only searches it's parent UINamingContainer for the control
with "id" as specified by the "for" attribute. Therefore controls contained in
subviews cannot be focused by the focus control. There is a work around for
this (see below) but an optimal solution would be to have the focus control
ascend to the HTMLForm component and search all UINamingContainers for the
control with "id" as specified by the "for" attribute.
The work around involves removing the Exception thrown by the focus component
when a search for the control with "id" as specified in the "for" attribute
fails. By doing this you can place a focus control in the parent UINaming
container as well as in all subviews and the focus component that finds the
control will be the one that generates the javascript to focus the control it
found. A patch for the workaround is attached.
