Rendering Not Correct on First Visit to Page

["Kirchgessner, Lisa" <li...@fanniemae.com>]

Hello,
 
I am attempting to dynamically render components on a page during first
visit (using request-scope beans), specifically datatable components
(rendering via value-binding), as well optionally addMessage for a
h:message component. The datatable rendering appears to pick up the
default rendering when bean first created. As well, any message added
during processing is not displayed.

Background:
When page first accessed, I'm trying to build a datatable based on
current dates. When there is no data, I'm attempting to display a
message and not render the datatable. Tracing indicates that isRendered
is false. However, the page is displayed with the Table rendered and no
message displayed. I use x:Savestate (myFaces) for subsequent requests,
so all is fine then.

Can anyone help?

Best Regards,
Lisa Blue-in-the-Faces
