I have a huge problem with my jsf page. I have to pass a Parameter in Post request to a request scoped Bean. All works fine except one little bug. The button to update my information reacts only from second click on. This Page has to be request scope. Everytime i push the button it first runs the @PostConstruct and is then ready for a click. I tried to delete the PostConstruct method but my program than stops. I tried nearly everything. Any ideas please?
Here is my Code: I enter this page by calling the Methode "showEditEvent" from another Bean.
