required="true" on partial submit?
Hi,
On one of my pages I've got 2 tr:selectOneChoice boxes - box A and box
B. The content of box B depends on the selection of box B. I'm using
autoSubmit="true" for box A and partialTriggers="boxA" for box B. This
works perfect unless I'm setting the required="true" attribute for box
B. That causes a validation of the box B selection when a change in box
A occurs. Seperating both boxes with tr:subforms doesn't work with the
partialTriggers, so this is no solution.
Am I right in thinking that I can't use the required="true" attribute
for box B or did I overlook other ways to implement this? When it's not
possible to set the required="true" for box B this is no problem for me
because I can validate all fields later, but I want to know it because I
don't like smelling code.
Thanks you and best regards
Felix

Hi Felix -
One approach to consider would be to set immediate="true" on
seelctOnceChoice A. This will force it to be validated/updated before
all of the other non-immediate components. Then, in your
valueChangeListener for selectOneChoice A, you should be able to call
FacesContext.renderResponse() to skip over validation/update of the
rest of the page - thus skipping over any required field validation.
BTW, there is a great wiki on the "immediate" attribute here:
http://wiki.apache.org/myfaces/How_The_Immediate_Attribute_Works
Hope that helps!
Andy

Oh, woops, yep, tr:subform is a much convenient than manually mucking
with the immediate attribute. Thanks Andrew!
