Thanks for the response Mike, but the <t:commandLink> IS inside the
<t:columns>, isn't it? (I re-pasted the example jsf) The UIData binding
variable is getting a valid (and correct) row(column) index at all other
times except when the view state is restored using the method (described in
the original post).
<t:dataTable var="mainMenu" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0"
value="#{navigatorBean.navigatorBlankRow}">
<t:columns value="#{navigatorBean.navigatorMainItems}"
var="mainItems"
styleClass="#{navigatorBean.mainItemCss}"
binding="#{navigatorBean.mainColumns}">
<t:commandLink value="#{mainItems.name}"
title="#{mainItems.label}"
onmouseover="expandcontent('sc#{navigatorBean.mainColumns.rowIndex}', this)"
/>
</t:columns>
</t:dataTable>
Off to do some last minute Christmas shopping...Merry Christmas to all!
BTW - I did a hack this way to make it work...since the managed bean is
request scoped, I declared a private int and initialize it to zero. I
increment it inside the getMainItemCss() method and if it doesn't equal the
rowIndex, I set the row index to the to the private int.
private int i = 0;
public String getMainItemCss() {
...
if (mainColumns.getRowIndex() != i)
mainColumns.setRowIndex(i);
i++
...
