I am trying to pass the values between xhtml pages using the Request Scoped JSF Managed Bean, GendersManager.java in jsf as follows:
Page Flow:
index.xhtml ---hyper link---> GendersInsertCreateKeyin.xhtml ---Confirm---> GendersInsertCreateConfirm.xhtml ---Commit---> GendersInsertCreateCommitted.xhtml ---Committed---> index.xhtml
Issue:
The field vaues are shown in "GendersInsertCreateConfirm.xhtml" (ie.during 1st navigation) but field values become null/empty string in GendersInsertCreateCommitted.xhtml (ie. during 2nd navigation) during the page flows.
Update:
a) Converting the user interfaces, h:outputText to h:inputText in GendersInsertCreateConfirm.xhtml retains field values during the page flows.
b) After Converting the user interfaces, h:outputText to h:inputText and setting its parameter readonly=true, field values become null/empty string during the page flows.
c) tried to set the values to the member variables of jsf managed bean,GendersManager with the following javascript code from GendersInsertCreateConfirm.xhtml:
<h:commandButton id="insertCreateConfirmBtnUi" value="Genders Insert Create Confirm" action="#{gendersManager.insertCreateConfirm}"/></td>
<f:verbatim>
<script type="text/js" language="javascript">
var genderSlNoUiText = document.getElementByid("genderSlNoUi").getValue();
</script>
<f:setPropertyActionListener target="#{gendersManager.genderSlNo}" value=genderSlNoUiText/>
<f:verbatim>
</h:commandButton>
, but throws error that value should have quotes
Please guide me in passing values between xhtml pages using the jsf managed bean.
