Rich,
I will update the wiki later today.
Thanks for the feedback, this will only make the documentation better
and encourage other to get involved.

I'm using MyFaces & Tomahawk 1.1.1. There really isn't an error per se...
the radio buttons display just fine. It's just when you submit the form, no
value is set and if there's a form error, the radio button that was selected
isn't checked.
By making the suggested modifications, it'll save other folks a lot of time
in figuring this out. The wiki isn't quite complete as is I guess. I don't
want to sound ungrateful -- as is, it did help me get to a point.

Rich,
The example is based on stuff I am currently using with Tomahawk 1.1.3.
What is the error you are getting and what is your version of Tomahawk?

Hey Paul,
Would you mind updating the wiki page (Dynamic Example) at
http://wiki.apache.org/myfaces/Display_Radio_Buttons_In_Columns ? I would,
but I don't have access to it. When going by the current wiki page, the
radio buttons will display, but nothing gets set when the form is posted.
To fix this, the t:selectOneRadio tag should not be inside the t:dataTable
tag, but just underneath the h:form tag. Also, the "for" attribute of the
t:radio tags should use an absolute id. Below is a modified example.
There's also an added value attribute in the t:selectOneRadio tag, so
"public String selectedButton" (plus setters/getters) will also need to be
added to RadioButtons.java.
<h:form id="theForm">
<t:selectOneRadio id="buttons"
value="buttonList.selectedButton"
layout="spread"
forceId="true"
forceIdIndex="false">
<f:selectItems value="#{buttonList.selectList}" />
</t:selectOneRadio>
<t:dataTable newspaperColumns="3"
var="row"
value="#{buttonList.dataModel}"
rowIndexVar="index">
<h:column>
<t:radio for=":theForm:buttons" index="#{index}" />
</h:column>
</t:dataTable>
</h:form>

I am facing the same problem with selectManyCheckbox.
The setter setSharedResources is never called.
Any help is appreciated

Hi, all. I've been trying to solve a similar problem using Paul's wiki
documentation. Basically I'm trying to display a set of dynamic
checkboxes
in multiple columns. Here is a code snippet from my JSP:
<t:dataTable newspaperColumns="2" var="row"
value="#{publicationForm.sharedResourceDataModel}"
rowIndexVar="index">
<t:selectManyCheckbox id="sharedResourceCheckboxes" layout="spread"
value="#{publicationForm.sharedResources}">
<f:selectItems value="#{publicationForm.sharedResourceList}"/>
</t:selectManyCheckbox>
<h:column>
<t:checkbox for="sharedResourceCheckboxes" index="#{index}"/>
</h:column>
</t:dataTable>
Now, here's my problem. When I arrive at this JSP, the checkboxes are
initialized with the values contained in
#{publicationForm.sharedResources}.
However, if I modify the selections at all and submit, those changes are
ignored.
Does anyone have any idea what may be going on? If you need any more
information, please let me know.
Thanks!
