Before I start: I'm running JSF 2.0 MyFaces on Tomcat 6 and I've used some primefaces in this project already.
I've got a page with three filtered dropdowns that set a bunch of parameters in my backing bean. These parameters are then used to include a page under the dropdowns. I'm using ui:include to include this page but I'm pretty sure that ui:include only executes once per lifecycle. That means that the page shows up once and does not change when the dropdowns change.
Here is an example of my view
<h:form> <!-- dropdowns to build the route to the included page --> <h:selectOneMenu> <f:selectItems ... /> <f:ajax event="change" render=":formInclude" execute=":formInclude" listener="#{control.handledd1Change}"/> </h:selectOneMenu> <h:selectOneMenu> <f:selectItems ... /> <f:ajax event="change" render=":formInclude" execute=":formInclude" listener="#{control.handledd2Change}"/> </h:selectOneMenu> <h:selectOneMenu> <f:selectItems ... /> <f:ajax event="change" render=":formInclude" execute=":formInclude" listener="#{control.handledd3Change}"/> </h:selectOneMenu> </h:form> <h:panelGrid id="formInclude"> <ui:include src="#{control.formName}.xhtml"/> </h:panelGrid> So, I was wondering what the most correct way of dynamically including a page in JSF is. Am I correct about the ui:include only executing once? Is there anything else out there that I could use to dynamically include a page?
