hello, concerning html: http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/interact/forms.html#disabled http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/interact/forms.html#read-only and: http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/interact/forms.html#successful-controls
-> values of disabled fields don't get submitted concerning jsf: although values of read-only fields are submitted they don't get decoded. -> you have to look up such values within the RequestParameterMap - you get the map via: FacesContext.getCurrentInstance ().getExternalContext().getRequestParameterMap() additional information: trinidad doesn't behave the same way! regards, gerhard 2008/1/3, Volker Weber <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > > afaik disabled html components are send to the server by the browser > (readonly are not), but not processed by jsf.
