Curious?

[Bjørn T Johansen <bt...@havleik.no>]

This may be a more generic JSF question than myfaces specific but maybe someone has an
answer....
I have a h:selectOneMenu component om my jsp page, that is bound to an id in a managed
bean. I had some problems, so I added a log in both set and getid method to see if these
were called, and now I see that getID is called three times whenever the page is
rendered.. Is this by design and if so, why?


Regards,

BTJ

That's not too surprising.  The id is checked at different times for
various purposes.  Usually its called at least once to generate the
client id when rendering.  The client id is also used for event
handling (to find out if certain events apply to a particular
component.)
