I guess this is an issue in case we have a required field validation and also an explicit check in the backing bean. Is there a way out?

If Yes and if it can be solved, please let me know the same. If No, I would like to know experiences from people who have observed such behavior. Thanks ~Sandeep ________________________________ From: sandeep gururaj [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, February 08, 2008 5:23 PM To: MyFaces Discussion Subject: (Trinidad) Refreshing error messages Hello All, I have a form with 3 input fields and a command button. All 3 input fields are mandatory (i.e required="true" is set). Now when I enter values for all 3 input fields and click on the command button, I invoke an action method that compares the values for the first 2 input fields. If value of field-1 is not same as that of field-2, an error message saying "Field-1 is not same as Field-2" is displayed on the UI; otherwise, the 3 values are processed and a success message is displayed. Consider now that I enter 2 different values for field-1 and field-2 and I also enter a value for field-3. When I click on the command button, I get the error message as expected. Now, I will enter same value in field-1 and field-2, but remove the entry from field-3. At this point, when I click the command button, along with the old error message, I get a new message saying "Field-3 is mandatory". I feel this is wrong because my values in field-1 and field-2 are same now. So, I should only get the new message for field-3. I feel the cause for this issue is that when I click second time, the check for field-1 and field-2 (which is in my backing bean) is not happening and instead only the required field validation for field-3 is happening. I would like to know if there is any way to solve this problem. Thanks ~Sandeep
