I’ve changed my code completely. But active index is still showing problems. Sometimes it gets called and sometimes it doesn’t.
What’s wrong with the following xhtml code?

I’m using primefaces 3.2, JSF 2.1, Tomcat 7, netbeans 7.1, Hibernate3
Update: @rags
i was having some problem in activeindex.
After the activeindex and everything started working, i started to compare my code to know what was going wrong.
Now, when i changed the required=”false” to required=”true” in the input fields and other components, the activeindex won’t work again.

I’ve many tabview and accordion tabs. activeindex worked when I made required="false" for every component of one tab. Changing all to required="true" caused activeindex not to work, but if you change to required="false" of components of only one tab activeindex works just fine.
If
<p:tabViewis in a<h:form, _activeIndex is updated.If
<p:tabViewis NOT in a<h:form, _activeIndex is NOT updated.This can be seen in the POST using Firebug.
From what I can tell, _activeIndex and _activetab should have same value with TabView component.
I use the following code with multiple tabs, and different form in each tab:
Maybe this a solution for you.
