Ajax jsf component panel

Hi,

i wish to create an ajax component panel that is simply a panel with 
particular javascript effect to expand and contract. However i found a 
solution but i don't know if this is the right solution. I will use dwr 
servlet to communicate by ajax (as explained in blue prints catalog 
article) but the render inside will be always available but 
hidden...because i don't know how i can render and put the result via 
ajax...
Someone can tell me if it is a correct solution? Some suggestion?

Thank you
Yours faithfully
John Slave

Hi John,

There is a sample "component palette" in our book (we call it Deck 
component) that you can look at. The source is available from the Apress 
website.

I want to use ajax to conditional render components (if the component is 
closed there is no need to load the components...however these effects 
can be achieved without ajax...)

Thank you

Hi John,

which result you wanna get through the ajax request?

Only for the expand-and-contract functionality there is no need for
using ajax. This can be done only using javaScript on client side.

Do you use a js framework for your component or have you coded it on your own?

As far as i know, our accordion component uses open rico for shielding
from the complexity. A cool working example can be found under:

http://openrico.org/rico/demos.page?demo=rico_accordion

Also the dojo js framework has this feature right now:

cheers,

Gerald

You might take a look at the
org.apache.myfaces.custom.accordion.HtmlAccordionPanel in the MyFaces
Tomahawk sandbox.
