autoSubmit across forms

[Daniel Hannum <dh...@quovadx.com>]

Is it possible to use autoSubmit/partialTriggers across forms? I have
one form in a common facelets template where you select an item from a
selectOneChoice. The page itself contains another form. I want items in
the page form to update when the header dropdown is changed.

 

I set autoSubmit="true" on the selectOneChoice at the top, and I set
partialTrigger="formName:id" on the component down below, but it doesn't
update.

 

Seems like that should be the right way to do it. What am I doing wrong?
Or is this not supported?

Yep, the general Trinidad recommendation is to use one form for
everything and - if necessary - use tr:subform where needed to
separate contents.

Hello Daniel,

Can't you use a parent form to contain everything? If you can then it should
work, else you'll have to do some phase listener / custom root component
magic. I can provide a small code snippet if you cannot use a global form.
