Question

There is some way to pass action in <rich:modalPanel>. I want to write simple popup with “Yes” and “No” button, and I want to reuse this popup in different pages, that’s why I need that different action was invoked when “Yes” button pressed. There is a way to pass some value in <rich:modalPanel> with <a4j:actionparam>:

<a4j:commandButton value="See details…" id="det"
    reRender="popup_dataIdField, …">

    <rich:componentControl for="popup"
        operation="show" event="onclick" />

    <a4j:actionparam name="message" assignTo="#{popupBean.message}"
        value="#{myBean.message}" />                                        
</a4j:commandButton>

But is some way to pass action ?

Answer 1

I find the answer by myself :). Maybe it will be helpful for somebody.

I’ve done this using Facelets. When I’m include popup to my page I pass parametr to it:

            <ui:include src="./WEB-INF/popup/popup.xhtml">
                <ui:param name="yesAction" value="${thisPageBean}" />
            </ui:include>  

Where thisPageBean – is bean from what popup invoked.

Then in my popup I wrote:

 <a4j:commandButton id="yesButton" value="#{msgs.yesButton}"
                     action="#{yesAction.someAtion}"
 </a4j:commandButton>

And with this I invoke thisPageBean.someAtion. All magic is ${thisPageBean}, it’s is necessary to us $ but no #.
