Hi Ray,
A couple of thoughts:
What is the scope of your bean (request, app etc) in the <managed-bean> for the object.
When you say that the db is updated do you mean the user hits 'go' the db is updated then when the page is being rendered the values are set to null? If that is the case I don't think MyFaces is doing anything to make that happen. What is going on in your action method? Is it possible that the state of the bean is being reset from there? Also, if this is whats happening the location of the state being saved won't matter, once the be is reconstituted on the server its not messed with by JSF until the next request comes in.
Thanks for using MyFaces!

I have an app that is using tiles and MyFaces 1.0.8. The page comes up and looks great. But something is wrong when the page gets posted back to the server. The data gets sent because it adds a row to the database, but when the page is redisplayed the values are lost. The getters always return null (the initial value of the strings).
I've tried client side state saving and server side state saving. I've tried using x:saveState. I've tried every combination that I can think of but the values in the bean used to display the page are always null.
I'm sure that someone has an app working with tiles. Any ideas on what I might have set up wrong?
Thanks, Ray

Ok, the page comes up just fine. But when I go to add a row, or delete a row, the list is always null, and the other fields in the bean are always null.
I'm using tiles, but that shouldn't have anything to do with it.
I've tried changing to client side state saving using the x:saveState tag, but nothing seems to work. All of the fields in the bean always seem to get reset to their initialized state when the page is being rendered.
I have a different app that I made without tiles that seems to work fine. I just have something wrong in my app that uses tiles.
Does anyone have any ideas on this?
Thanks, Ray
