coded in opera M2;) so code is not checked, but should work;)
or at least demonstrate the idea "1":
===========view============
<script language="javascript">
function comboChanged(){
document.getElementById("f:hiddenButton").click();
}
</script>
<h: form id="f">
<h:commandbutton value="hidden button" action="#{bean.action}"
style="display:none" id="hiddenButton"/>
<h:selectonemenu value=#{bean.selectedComboValue}
onchange="comboChanged()">
<f:selectItems value="#{bean.comboValues}"/>
</h:selectonemenu />
</h:form>
==========model===========
public class bean{
private String selectedComboValue;
private SelectItem[] comboValues;
public string action(){
//check value of selectedComboValue, do sth, return string
depended on
on that value
}
//getters & setters
}
Hi,
I am strugling with the same issue, and am of course pleased to see
that it can be solved :-)
My only problem is that I can't follow the idea schetched here, are
you able to provide a code example?
In my case I also need to suply an <f:param> for the page I am
navigating to, but I suspect I will be able to resolve that in the
action of the hidden button?
Thanks in advance
