Question

How can I prevent a popupPanel from closing after I sumbit a form inside it?

My code for button:

<h:commandButton value="Search" action="#{facesBean.search()}" >
<f:ajax execute="@form" render="result" />
</h:commandButton>

My code for the panel to be rendered after submit:

<h:panelGroup id="result" rendered="#{facesBean.list != null}">
TEST TO RERENDER
</h:panelGroup>

They’re in the same h:form.

Is there something wrong? I don’t get any error when running it.

There are basically two ways:

1. Just submit the form by ajax.
2. If you can’t submit by ajax for some reason, just reopen the popup panel on postback.
