Hi, I want to display the result of an action (a new page) in a new browser window. So I set the target attribute of tc:link or tc:button to the window name. This works fine. But when I click another button or link in the page the action is not executed (the page is rendered again). I always have to click the button twice.
I think this is a known problem with a known solution. In my code for the PDF download I included this two lines to avoid this problem: // Save serialized view or else after clicking on the export button, // user will have to click TWICE to invoke another action StateManager stateManager = (StateManager)facesContext.getApplication().getStateManager(); stateManager.saveSerializedView(facesContext); (Taken from http://swforum.sun.com/jive/thread.jspa?threadID=63566) Maybe this code should be included in Tobago (or myFaces?) when the target attribute is set. Here's a simple test case for you: test1.jsp <f:view> <tc:page id="testPage1" width="300px" height="200px"> <tc:out value="Page 1"/> <tc:link label="new window" target="newWindow" action="#{controller.newWindowAction}" /> <tc:button label="another action" action="#{controller.anotherAction}" /> </tc:page> </f:view> test2.jsp <f:view> <tc:page id="testPage2" width="300px" height="200px"> <tc:out value="Page 2"/> </tc:page> </f:view> faces-config.xml <navigation-rule> <from-view-id>/test1.jsp</from-view-id> <navigation-case> <from-outcome>newWindow</from-outcome> <to-view-id>/test2.jsp</to-view-id> </navigation-case> </navigation-rule> Controller.java public String newWindowAction() { LOG.debug("newWindowAction"); return "newWindow"; } public void anotherAction() { LOG.debug("anotherAction"); } When you click the "new window" link in test1.jsp a new window is opened with test2.jsp. But when you click the link again test1.jsp is displayed in the new window. When you click the "another action" button after clicking the "new window" link the anotherAction() is not called. You have to click the button once again. I'm using myFaces 1.1.5 and Tobago 1.0.11 from yesterday. I think you should be able to reproduce this behavior. Regards Helmut
