Changing the title of an openened p:dialog

Question

is it possible using PrimeFaces EL to update the title of an opened dialog without updating its content.

My Solutions so far is reopening the dialog and loading its new content. Tried to set the title on server side but couldn't also manage to refresh just the title.

Any hints? Thanks in advance.

Problem is that a button within the dialog is setting up the title. When I do this and update the whole dialog, the dialog will be closed.

@Kukeltje I don't know how to improve this question... With code? — LupoZ, Mar 08 '17 at 07:42
EL is evaluated at server side while rendering a page(fragment). So any EL result has to update your dialog and will close it. I think you have to use javascript. — Holger, Mar 08 '17 at 09:03
@Holger That was exactly my question. Whether it's possible without javascript. — LupoZ, Mar 08 '17 at 09:35

Use the header facet of p:dialog, insert h:outputText with the title and an id and update only the h:outputText component.
