Simon, Thanks. Regarding f:param, it used to work before I started to put the datatable inside of the <t:panelTabbedPane>. I think the culprit is that the call never reaches viewFacility() on the backing bean, I don't know what the reason for this is.

Bean facilityTable is session-scope which is the important thing. It's a common mistake to have a request-scoped bean, then have problems when the data referenced by a table is different on postback than on render - but that doesn't appear to be the case here. > > > I've put some logging and it looks like the getters on the facility property > of facilityTable.java are being called, but not the setters: > > FacilityTable -> setFacilities() [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL > PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL > PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED] > FacilityTable.java -> getFacility() is called... > FacilityTable.java -> getFacility() is called... > FacilityTable.java -> getFacility() is called... > FacilityTable.java -> getFacility() is called... > FacilityTable.java -> getFacility() is called... > FacilityTable.java -> getFacility() is called... > FacilityTable.java -> getFacility() is called... > FacilityTable.java -> getFacility() is called... > FacilityTable.java -> getFacility() is called... > FacilityTable.java -> getFacility() is called... > FacilityTable.java -> getFacility() is called... > FacilityTable.java -> getFacility() is called... > FacilityTable.java -> getFacility() is called... > FacilityTable.java -> getFacility() is called... > FacilityTable.java -> getFacility() is called... > FacilityTable.java -> getFacility() is called... > FacilityTable.java -> getFacility() is called... > FacilityTable.java -> getFacility() is called... > FacilityTable.java -> getFacility() is called... > <Mar 26, 2007 5:24:32 PM EDT> <Error> <HTTP> <BEA-101017> <[EMAIL PROTECTED] > - appName: 'GISWeb', name: 'GISWeb.war', context-path: '/GISWeb'] Root cause > of ServletException. > javax.faces.el.PropertyNotFoundException: Base is null: .facility > at > org.apache.myfaces.el.ValueBindingImpl.resolveToBaseAndProperty(ValueBindingImpl.java:477) > at > org.apache.myfaces.el.ValueBindingImpl.getType(ValueBindingImpl.java:175) > at > org.apache.myfaces.shared_tomahawk.renderkit._SharedRendererUtils.findUIOutputConverter(_SharedRendererUtils.java:58) > at > org.apache.myfaces.shared_tomahawk.renderkit.RendererUtils.findUIOutputConverter(RendererUtils.java:333) > at > org.apache.myfaces.shared_tomahawk.renderkit.RendererUtils.getConvertedUIOutputValue(RendererUtils.java:627) > Truncated. see log file for complete stacktrace > > > I can clearly see all the data on the screen being populated. setFacility() > never gets called, even when the data changes.

I would only expect the setFacility method to be called when the facilityTable instance is created for the session, ie once for each user. The get will be called repeatedly, as there are multiple EL expressions referencing it. As each is evaluated the object is refetched. So that all seems fine. I'm a little puzzled by that message "Base is null: .facility". Why is the dot there I wonder... Otherwise, though, I can't spot what the problem is here. Sorry. One thing I did notice is that you are trying to use f:param with t:commandLink. Does this really update the selectedIndex property of your backing bean? I would be surprised if it does; try t:updateActionListener instead.
