Looking for "container" tag

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

Hi, I'm trying to make components change there "rendered" status based
on a dropdown. I found this article:

f_jsf_fields_depe&more=1&c=1&tb=1&pb=1

 

This isn't hard. I know how to do autoSubmit and partialTriggers and
all. The difficulty is that you need to set partialTriggers on the
PARENT component because if a component is not rendered, it doesn't
listen for events. So what I want is a simple "container" component
(kinda like a div) that I can just put my child components inside of,
and set partialTriggers on.

 

Is there such a component? I think a panelGrid with one item inside it
would do it, or maybe a panelGroup, but those aren't ADF, so you can't
use partialTriggers on them. Ideas? I'm going to look more at the
component list, but I didn't see something simple like what I want.

 

Thanks.

Dan
