Hi,
Yes, you need to use a larger scope than request for your use case. What
happen more specifically is the following:
1. Click the checkbox;
2. PPR launches and set the request managed bean's check property to true;
3. The inputTexts are rerendered;
4. The managed bean is destroyed as the request scope is released;
5. Click submit;
6. During Apply request values, the managed bean is recreated (since it's
request scoped) with check property set to false;
7. Last name field looks like it's read only since the check property is set
to false, so the submitted request parameter is ignored;
8. During update model, the check get its value updated to true from the
checkbox's submitted value;
9. The last name is never updated as the submitted value was ignored during
a preceding phase, even if it's now no longer read only.
Hope it make it decently clear,
