I'm new to JSF but I do have a question for you. In your method you are setting pageViewBean.setShowResourcesView(true); and pageViewBean.setShowConfigView(false); but you are never setting showResourcesView to false and showConfigView to true. When you tab from one to the other shouldn't you be calling the setter for both booleans?
You also instantiate a new PageViewBean called bean but I didn't see where you use it. One more thing, I think JSF renders pages top to bottom, I don't know, but maybe you need a hidden field above the subview with some dummy field and in the getter for that initialize these booleans. I'm just guessing here since I don't understand the details of JSF yet. Ray --- Lorinda Swick <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Wow!
