I have a <h:dataTable> adds contents of an input text to a list in a nested <h:dataTable>. A hidden command button is linked to the input text
Problem is only the first input text's action method work, hence only list attached to the first thread of the parent message is updated not the consecutive once.
<p:tabView id="tabView">

Backing bean:
public void addMessage (Message msg)
{
List<Message> subList=this.getSubscribedChannelsMessages();
for(Message mess:subList)
{
if(mess.getMessage().equalsIgnoreCase(msg.getMessage()))
{
msg.getReplyList().add(new Reply (repli));
repli = "";
replyClicked = false;
}
}
}
public void enabletextbox()
{
if (replyClicked==false)
replyClicked =true;
else
replyClicked = false;
}
I don't understand why the <p:commandButton> of the nested <h:dataTable> doesn't invoke its actionListener. How is this caused and how can I solve it?
