Few components are not rendering in primefaces in JSF, after submitting the form

Question

I'm trying to work on primefaces. when i am trying to run a xhtml page individually in my eclipse IDE, All the primeface elements included in my "index.xhtml" works fine, But when i updated my "web.xml" to set "index.xhtml" as a homepage and execute project on a whole the elements are not rendering properly my code is written as below. and the problem is arising when i submitted the form and want to again re-submit another entry.

index.xhtml

   <?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1" ?>
    <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">

    <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1" />
    <title>Visitor Information</title>
    </h:head>
    <h:body>
    <h1 align="center">Visitor information</h1>
    <p:outputLabel>
     Name:
    </p:outputLabel><p:inputText />
        form-Element 1
        form-Element 2
        form-Element 3
        form-Date element 1
        form-Data element 2

I finally fixed the problem, the form is actually loading perfectly for the first time , and when i submit the values and try to re-submit another record for the second time few elements are not loading,

i first realized that the problem is with the primefaces but the actual problem is this , when the form values are initialized through a setter and submitted to the back-end, they are not actually cleared after the submission , so all the values of the past record are again reloaded to the form through the getter method. the form contains prime-face date elements, as they are trying to load the date-element with previous record which is yielding me an error,and elements are not loading due to the error with the date-element.

the solution i did is clearing off the form values once they get submitted to the back-end database.

Try:

<welcome-file-list>
    <welcome-file>faces/index.xhtml</welcome-file>
</welcome-file-list>

The index.xhtml page should use the Faces-Servlet.
