Have you tried putting your columns using a panelGroup? I've found that things are a bit more stable that way. May not help, but worth a shot...

I use myfaces 1.1.1 with tiles. The users sees kind of a shoppingcart on the left side in every page. This shoppingcart is realised with a dataTable in a tile an binded to a request bean: <t:dataTable id="changeTracker_table" value="#{changeTrackerBean.changes}" var="c" styleClass="table-background" rowClasses="table-odd-row,table-even-row" cellpadding="1" binding="#{changeTrackerBean.changeTable}" > <h:column> <h:outputText value="#{c.type}" id="changeTracker_type_title"/> </h:column> <h:column> <h:outputText value="#{c.title}" id="changeTracker_popup_title"/> </h:column> <h:column> <h:commandLink action="#{changeTrackerBean.gotoElement}" immediate="true" id="changeTracker_goto" > <h:outputText value="#{bundle.show}" id="changeTracker_goto_title"/> </h:commandLink> </h:column> <h:column> <h:commandLink action="#{changeTrackerBean.undoElement}" immediate="true" id="changeTracker_undo"> <h:outputText value="#{bundle.undo}" id="changeTracker_undo_title"/> </h:commandLink> </h:column> </t:dataTable> I addition the user can click on a commandlink which jumps to a page with further details. So far everything works fine, exept that when I navigate through the application, the columns of the dataTable disapear or change places after every request. Sometimes I see only halfe of the columns or the columns are duplicated! What could be the problem? I also removed the binding attribute in the datatable component an then I couldn't see the described problems. But I need the binding to detect which commandlink in the table was clicked. thx -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/dataTable-column-problem-t1485991.html#a4024678 Sent from the MyFaces - Users forum at Nabble.com.
