linking to non-default tr:showDetailItem in a tr:panelTabbed
Hi,
I'm using Trinidad with facelets. I have a page "about.xhtml" containing a
tr:panelTabbed that has a default item of "Contact". I would like to also
create a link to the "Company" item on the about.xhtml page.
How do I programatically reveal the non-default item when linking to this
page?
<<<about.xhtml>>>
<tr:panelTabbed position="above" id="aboutMenu" class="panelClass">
<tr:showDetailItem id="contactPanel" text="Contact"
inlineStyle="float: left">
<tr:panelHeader text="Contact Us"/>
</tr:showDetailItem>
<tr:showDetailItem id="helpPanel" text="Company"
inlineStyle="float: left">
<tr:panelHeader text="Contact Us"/>
</tr:showDetailItem>
</tr:panelTabbed>
Thanks in advance!
Mark

Thanks Gerhard. It was a "real" redirect and changing the scope to "session"
resolved the issue. I'll investigate some custom scope moving forward. I
appreciate your assistance on this!

hello mark,
you are welcome!
concerning your second problem:
are you using a real redirect? (or did you just call it "redirect"?)
in the case of a real redirect:
the request scope is too short for such a scenario.
-> please test it with a session scoped bean (just for testing purpose).
as final solution use one of the available custom scopes (they are longer
than request scope and shorter than session scope).

gerhard

Yes, sorry....I was a little careless in my reading of your post. Using
partialTrigger solves the partialSubmit problem when the tr:commandLink is
on the same page as the tabSwitcher
BUT, when using it from the main.xhtml page i.e. <tr:commandLink
action="about" id="tabSwitcher" text="show 'Company' tab"
actionListener="#{contactForm.showCompanyTab}" />
The showCompanyTab(...) method gets called apparently before the redirect to
the about.xhtml page so it doesn't take effect
In other words, the about.xhtml page gets rendered, the showCompanyTab
method gets called but the default panel (not the intended panel) gets
rendered. Any ideas?
thanks for you patience and cooperation, I'm still trying to master some of
the finer details here.

hello mark,
@1)
don't forget the partialTriggers-attribute!
please have a second look at my previous mail -> you will find the
following:
<tr:commandLink id="tabSwitcher" text="show 'Company' tab"
actionListener="#{ bean.showCompanyTab}" partialSubmit="true"/>
<tr:panelTabbed position="above" id="aboutMenu" class="panelClass"
partialTriggers="tabSwitcher">
-> it also works with the partialSubmit-attribute.
@2)
also this requirement works.
e.g. you can use the same bean within several pages.
(there is also a simple possibility, if you are using different beans...)
(+ don't forget the action-attribute of the link + a proper outcome and
navigation rule)
(in such a case you don't need the partialSubmit-attribute, because you
display a different page...)

gerhard

Re: linking to non-default tr:showDetailItem in a tr:panelTabbed
Posted by md10024 <md...@qwizics.com>.
Gerhard,
That's excellent information, and it works... almost. Two things I find:
1. Re: <tr:commandLink ... partialSubmit="true"/>
I needed to remove the partialSubmit="true" otherwise I didn't get the
requested tab rendered.
2. It works when the <tr:commandLink... /> is on the same page as the tab
(i.e. about.xhtml) but what if I want to put the the link on a different
page (ex. main.xhtml) and get the non-default tab on the about.xhtml page
rendered? This doesn't work for that scenario.
Any suggestions?

Re: linking to non-default tr:showDetailItem in a tr:panelTabbed
Posted by Gerhard Petracek <ge...@gmail.com>.
hello mark,
e.g.: add an actionListener to your link and the disclosed-attribute to your
showDetailItems
your snippet (+ modifications):
<tr:commandLink id="tabSwitcher" text="show 'Company' tab"
actionListener="#{bean.showCompanyTab}" partialSubmit="true"/>
<tr:panelTabbed position="above" id="aboutMenu" class="panelClass"
partialTriggers="tabSwitcher">
<tr:showDetailItem id="contactPanel" text="Contact"
inlineStyle="float: left"
disclosed="#{bean.showContact}"
binding="#{bean.contact}">
<tr:panelHeader text="Contact Us"/>
</tr:showDetailItem>
<tr:showDetailItem id="helpPanel" text="Company"
inlineStyle="float: left"
disclosed="#{bean.showCompany}"
bean="#{bean.company}">
<tr:panelHeader text="Company"/>
</tr:showDetailItem>
</tr:panelTabbed>
in my opinion the disclosed-attribute should be enough.
however, at the moment it doesn't work that way.
-> you also have to use component binding. (-> you also have to add the
binding-attribute - see above)
a possible workaround:
(don't forget the getter and setter methods)
within your bean - e.g.:
private boolean showContact = true;
private boolean showCompany = false;
//workaround:
private CoreShowDetailItem contact;
private CoreShowDetailItem company;
public void showCompanyTab(ActionEvent event)
{
this.showContact = false;
this.showCompany = true;
//workaround:
if(this.contact != null)
{
this.contact.setDisclosed( false );
}
if(this.company != null)
{
this.company.setDisclosed( true );
}
}

gerhard
