Hi-
I just started working with jsf about a month ago. So far so good except I
ran into a road block about a few days ago. I have been searching on the
mailing list for some answers but I am not having any luck. I believe there
was a few responses in the mailing list regarding this but I cannot figure
out the message. Basically I am generating a form that takes some user
information. Before I submit the form submits, id like to provide a modal
dialog that will prompt for a passphrase before he can submit. I will verify
on the server that the passphrase is correct before and then I will do all
the processing of the other form fields (basically, the verification of the
passphrase and the processing all take place in 1 request). If the
passphrase is incorrect, I have a "FAIL" action that redisplays the modal
dialog. I was having problems with the value binding expression. The value
of the inputtext field in the modal dialog(...
value="#{rsvpController.loginString}" ) as well as the main
form(<h:inputText value="#{rsvpController.numRespondents}"/>) are not being
binded to my backing bean. I looked at the generated html and I noticed the
that dialog is not within the form tags. I am attaching the simplified jsp
page below (along with test backing bean and excerpt from faces config). Am
I missing something simple? Thank you in advance.
I apologize in advance if I put too much code below.
