Question

   <div class="staff_ActionListTable">
    <h:panelGroup id="imccomponent">
        <div class="scroll-pane2Container">
            <div class="scroll-pane2" id="pane2">
                <div class="actionInnerTable">

                    <ui:repeat var="action" value="#{immediateActionListController.actionList}" varStatus="status">
                        <h:panelGroup rendered="#{status.even}">
                            <!--Update button-->
                            <h:commandButton  image="updateBtn.gif" value="Update1">
                                <f:ajax event="click" execute=":pp1" render=":pp1" listener="#{immediateActionListController.loadEditableActionComponent}" onevent="im_action_popupopener"/>
                                <f:param value="#{action.taskId}" name="immediateTaskIdForEdit">
                                </f:param>
                            </h:commandButton>
                        </h:panelGroup>
                    </ui:repeat>

                </div>
            </div>
        </div>
    </h:panelGroup>
</div>

<!--Add button-->
<div class="staffMember_ButtonContainer">
    <h:commandButton  image="addImmediateActionBtn.gif">
        <f:ajax event="click" execute="imccomponent" render="imccomponent" listener="#{immediateActionListController.loadAddActionPopUp}" onevent="action_im_add_popupopener"/>
    </h:commandButton>
</div>

<h:panelGroup id="pp1">
    <!--Popup1 start: Add Action-->
</h:panelGroup>

My code is like above, I want to bind particular values for ‘pp1’ pop-up box when I press the updateBtn button. That mean I want to render only that pop-up box part, then how I should specify execute, render option for this (I have try with execute=”:pp1″ render=”:pp1″ but it is not working). Thanks

Your execute is wrong. You need to execute the button itself, not the render target.

<f:ajax execute="@this" render=":pp1" listener="#{immediateActionListController.loadEditableActionComponent}" onevent="action_im_add_popupopener"/>

Otherwise the listener is never called. Note that I removed the event="click" as it is the default already.
