hi
I need to do the following in my JSF application:
- submit a form with input text fields
- validate form input
- if conversion or validation results in errors, show the original form
- if input is ok, open a new window and load a JSF response in it.
Input form window is left unchanged.
One option I can come up with would be to include a piece of
Javascript in the form page on postback that would open up a new
window and load the JSF view in it. Does this sound workable? How do I
generate Javascript code that would result in invoking a JSF action
method in a browser window?
How about:
<t:div rendered="#{pageBean.showPopup}">
<f:verbatim>
<script type="text/javascript">
window.open("/popup.jsf", "popupwin", "....");
</script>
</f:verbatim>
</t:div>
Then in your method that is connected to the commandButton used to
submit the page, just set a flag so that showPopup returns true.
The flag will be false initially, so the script won't render. After a
successful submit, showPopup will return true so the script is rendered
and the window will open.
