It calls getSort() about 3 times, setSort(String abc) once, getUsers() once and getUsers() calls doSort()
The thing is, it always calls setSort with the same string. If sortColumn was initialized to "username" then it only ever calls setSort with "username" as parameter... even when I click on the commandSortheader for the password column. I do agree with one thing... it certainly looks like it should work. Right now, it doesn't matter if any of the other methods on that bean work correctly or not. If it never calls setSort with a good column name, then the other methods implemented on that bean have no chance of functioning properly. -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Sortable-DataTable-in-Tomahawk...-t1643510.html#a4452301 Sent from the MyFaces - Users forum at Nabble.com.
