I'm using the Tomahawk t:dataScroller for pagination. It is working really well. There is only one issue that I'll try to explain:

Page A contains the t:dataTable, which is paginated with the t:dataScroller. There are links in the dataTable that can redirect me to another page, say page B. When I go back from B to A, the state of the pagination is restarted.

What I mean is that, if, in Page A, I'm at the 5th page, and then move to page B, when I go back to A, I'll be at the 1st page on A.

Does anyone have gone through this? Does anybody have any idea?

You can take control of 'first' property of the datatable. What you need to this,

  1. Declare a public/protected variable in your session bean,

    @ManagedBean @SessionScoped public class DataTableController implements java.io.Serializable { protected int first; // getters and setters...

  2. Bind it with the 'first' property of datatable

    <p:dataTable id="results-table" var="result" ... first="#{dataTableController.first}"

  3. While navigating between the pages, store the 'first' record value using something like this,

    public void onPageChange(PageEvent event) { this.setFirst(((DataTable) event.getSource()).getFirst()); }
