RE: Trinidad 2.0

[Michael Gitelman <mg...@delphi-tech.com>]

Hi,

I come across and issue with the latest Trinidad release and would like to ask for expert advice.

Below please find a snippet of the code that came with the Trinidad 2 beta demo. It works well in a jsp JSF page:

        </tr:panelGroupLayout>
      </tr:form>
    </tr:document>

However, when I put the same code into a facelet, it doesn't work. And when I remove the "tr:panelGroupLayout" it would work but I have to click twice on "Next / Previous" button and on the drop down. On first click it would simply re-load the page:

What am I doing wrong? Your help is greatly appreciated.
