I think I just solved this issue as follows: *CAUSED BY:* p:calendar *readonlyInput="#{pf_usersController.loggedInViaIpad == 'Y' ? 'true' : 'false'}"*
1. Glassfish 3.1.2.2 and MyFaces Core 2.1.9 handles that perfectly 2. OpenWebBeans and MyFaces Core 2.1.9 seem to struggle with that EL for whatever reason 3. So, I made it easy on OpenWebBeans and moved that EL to rendered="...", and conditionally render separate components with a readonlyInput="true" only for iPad device/endusers *CODE CHANGES* below: <h:outputText value="From:" /> <p:calendar id="filterTripDateFrom" value="#{pf_ordersController.filterTripDateFrom}" mode="popup" showOn="button" navigator="true" effect="fadeIn" pattern="MM/dd/yyyy" size="10" rendered="#{pf_usersController.loggedInViaIpad == 'N'}"> <p:ajax partialSubmit="false" event="dateSelect" listener="#{pf_ordersController.filterTripDateFromSelected}" update=":ordersBrowseForm:ordersDataTable :ordersBrowseForm:formMessages :ordersBrowseForm:_ajax_status" /> </p:calendar> <p:calendar id="filterTripDateFromOnIpad" value="#{pf_ordersController.filterTripDateFrom}" mode="popup" showOn="button" readonlyInput="true" navigator="true" effect="fadeIn" pattern="MM/dd/yyyy" size="10" rendered="#{pf_usersController.loggedInViaIpad == 'Y'}"> <p:ajax partialSubmit="false" event="dateSelect" listener="#{pf_ordersController.filterTripDateFromSelected}" update=":ordersBrowseForm:ordersDataTable :ordersBrowseForm:formMessages :ordersBrowseForm:_ajax_status" /> </p:calendar> <h:outputText value="To:" /> <p:calendar id="filterTripDateTo" value="#{pf_ordersController.filterTripDateTo}" mode="popup" showOn="button" navigator="true" effect="fadeIn" pattern="MM/dd/yyyy" size="10" rendered="#{pf_usersController.loggedInViaIpad == 'N'}"> <p:ajax partialSubmit="false" event="dateSelect" listener="#{pf_ordersController.filterTripDateToSelected}" update=":ordersBrowseForm:ordersDataTable :ordersBrowseForm:formMessages :ordersBrowseForm:_ajax_status" /> </p:calendar> <p:calendar id="filterTripDateToOnIpad" value="#{pf_ordersController.filterTripDateTo}" mode="popup" showOn="button" readonlyInput="true" navigator="true" effect="fadeIn" pattern="MM/dd/yyyy" size="10" rendered="#{pf_usersController.loggedInViaIpad == 'Y'}"> <p:ajax partialSubmit="false" event="dateSelect" listener="#{pf_ordersController.filterTripDateToSelected}" update=":ordersBrowseForm:ordersDataTable :ordersBrowseForm:formMessages :ordersBrowseForm:_ajax_status" /> </p:calendar> On Wed, Nov 21, 2012 at 3:19 PM, Howard W.
