0

My result tables/images will be displayed in the same page. But the submit button is not invoked. I have two drop downs on which the values of the other two drop downs are dependent. If I am writting immediate="true" the method is invoked but only two values are set with whom I have associated processValueChange action the other selected values are not updated in the bean.

The jsp page is as follows:

When a form is not being submitted, sometimes it may happen from a mistaken usage of JSF component.

I see that you are using

<h:selectOneMenu id="slaView" value="#{LoginForm.slaView}" required="true">
            <f:selectItems value="#{LoginForm.viewList}" />
        </h:selectOneMenu>

which comes from:

viewList=ddC.getViewList();

and the selected item goes into a String value.

can you please write the code of getViewList ?

If the items are declared of int,String – than the problem is that slaView should be of type int.
