Question

I’m developing an application in JSF 2.0. I’m also using the Primefaces component library. I’m having a problem with the p:confirmDialog of Primefaces. As soon as I want to show a p:confirmDialog, it disappears again almost instantly. The weirdest thing is that this problem only occurs with the application that is deployed on the GlassFish Server at work. When I upload the very same .war file to the GlassFish server on my computer at home or when I run the application in Netbeans this problem does not occur. I really can’t find out what the cause of this problem is. Also I couldn’t find any information about this on Google. Any help would be greatly appreciated! This is my code:

<h:commandButton value="Verwijderen" onclick="bezoekConfirmation.show()" styleClass="verwijderKnopBig" rendered="#{pageRenderController.canWriteBezoekenMobiele}" />
<p:confirmDialog message="Bent u zeker dat u dit bezoek wilt verwijderen?" closable="false"
     header="Bezoek verwijderen" severity="alert" widgetVar="bezoekConfirmation">
     <p:commandButton value="Ja" oncomplete="bezoekConfirmation.hide()" action="#{bezoekenMobieleController.deleteBezoek}" ajax="false" />
     <p:commandButton value="Nee" onclick="bezoekConfirmation.hide()" type="button" />
</p:confirmDialog>

Answer 1

Clicking on the button will cause a submit. The dialog appears, and the page is reloaded immediately.

Change this:

bezoekConfirmation.show()

to this:

bezoekConfirmation.show(); return false;

It’s really strange that your version works on your computer at home.
