Action method calls when refreshing the JSF page

I have a test application which contains a JSF page. The page contains a command button. Button's action attribute is mapped with action method in managed bean.Inside action method I am not doing anything and just redirecting to the same page using navigation-rule configured in faces-config.xml. I deployed the application and tested the page.
This is what I observed.
scenario 1:
===========
1) Run the page.
2) Refresh the page.
Observation:
Action method not called.
scenario 2:
===========
1) Run the page.
2) Click the command button.
2) Refresh the page any number of times.
Observation:
For each and every time the page is refreshed Action method is called.
Can anybody tell me why it is happening?

You get the page using a http get so no action is "configured" to fire...

1) Run the page.
2) Click the command button.

Can anybody tell me why it is happening?Using the command button (the first time) you obtain the view as postback so refreshing the page the browser will redo the last POST that fire again the Action...

Method call before visual web jsf page loads

Hi All.....
I have written a method in a java class that accesses the mysql backend db to check if a process is still running. If the process is still running, a JOptionPane is produced informing the user of this and offers an <ok> option(to check the process status again) and a <cancel> option(to redirect the user to the homepage). If the process is completed, I want the page to just load as normal. I want this method to be called before the visual web jsf page loads. I have the method call in the super_init() method of the page and everything seemed to be working fine, the problem I have run into is that if I set the value in the db to show the process is running, the JOptionPane is produced(like it should be), and then if I set the value to show the process has completed and choose <ok> from the pane, the page loads.....this is what I want. Now, after the page loads, if I set the value in the db to show the process is running again, the JOptionPane is produced again right after I apply the changes to the db edit!!!!. I don't know why this is happening. Should I be calling the method from somewhere other the super_init()????? I have tried the method call in the prerender(), preprocess(), and destroy() methods all with the same results.
Anyone have any ideas on what the problem could be??
Thanks in advance.

The Java part of a JSP/Servlet based webapplication runs physically at the server machine.
Only the HTML/CSS/JS part which is generated by the webapplication and sent to the client physically runs at the client machine.
JOptionPane is a Java Swing component which thus runs at the server machine. So you as client would only see it when both the server and the client runs at physically the same machine. Which is often only the case in development environment and doesn´t occur in real life! There is normally means of two physically different machines connected through the network/internet.
To solve your actual problem, look for Ajax poll techniques. To display an alert or confirm dialogue in the client side, you use Javascript for this.

Calling a method in BPM Object from jsf page

Hi All,
How do I call a method in BPM object from JSF page? Is it possible to invoke it in a manner similar to invoking a method from managed bean in JSF application?
Please help.
Thanks and Regards,
Veronica

You can use f:invoke (or f:invokea to with parameters)
For ajax calls, you can use f:invokeUrl to get the URL to a particular method within your BPM object, although make sure the Server-Side Method property is set to Yes.

Problem refreshing the parent page when closing a modal window.

I have page that opens a modal window from a report link column. In the modal window I want to be able to make my changes and press an Apply button so that the modal window is closed and the parent page is refreshed to show the modified details in the report. In Firefox all works well but in IE I get the error message ‘Window.opener.location is null or not an object’ .
When I comment out window.opener.location.href=window.opener.location.href; the modal window closes without error but I want to refresh the parent page with changes made in the modal window.
I’m afraid my java script is very limited (the code is based on other peoples examples.)
Parent Page I call this function from a report link column to display a modal window. Sets the hidden SAVE_STATUS field in destination page to ‘N’
function modalWin(pshow)
var url;
url='f?p=&APP_ID.:'+pshow+':&SESSION.::::SAVE_STATUS:N';
if (window.showModalDialog) {
window.showModalDialog(url,"name","dialogWidth:650px;dialogHeight:700px"); }
else {
window.open(url,"name","height=700,width=650,toolbar=no,directories=no,status=no,menubar=no,scrollbars=no,resizable=no ,modal=yes");
Destination page (modal window)
HTML Header.
The function closeWindow should refresh the parent page and close the modal window.
<base target=_self>
<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">

</script>
Html Body attribute.
onLoad="closeWindow();"
P_UPDATE_DATE process called from the Apply changes button. Sets the SAVE_STATUS flag to ‘Y’ for the onload in the html body.
UPDATE event
SET event_date = :P5001_EVENT_DATE
WHERE contract_reference = :P330_EVD_CONTRACT
AND event_number = :P330_EVD_EVENT_NUMBER;
:SAVE_STATUS := 'Y';
Thanks in advance, I will have a look when back in the office on Monday.
Cheers Pete

Hi Chris,
Thanks for your help. I think I've sorted it using your first suggestion doing a refresh in the parent page, I just didn't know how at the time.
What I've got in the parent window after the call to the modal window is the reload window.location.reload(); and in the modal window I close it using window.close(); The down side being the refresh happens if I use my 'Apply changes' or 'Cancel' button but I can live with that for now.
It seems to work in IE and firefox but as I say most of what I'm doing is cobbling together using other peoples code without really understanding exactly what it does. Anyway thanks for your help, sound like I should look into JQUERY when I have time.
Thanks Pete

Action method called before the listener

hi all;
i have a command_link as follows:
<h:command_link action="#{someBean.someMethod}" >
     <f:parameter name="param" value="0"/>
     <h:output_text value="#{someBean.someProperty}"/>
     <f:action_listener type="com.myListener" />
</h:command_link>
my problem is that the listener is called AFTER the bean method is called. i need my bean to use data that is set by the listener so i need the listener to be called BEFORE that method.
on EA4 i used the getPhaseID but now its gone and i cant seem to find the proper replacement.
i tried the immediate="true" attribute on the command_link with no success, the results were the same.
any help is appreciated.

I believe that what's really going on here is that
"action" should always be processed after all action
listeners, when, in fact, it's always processed first.
I'll raise this on the EG.
AIUI it's even more confusing than your description implies. There seem to be three things
that can be triggered from a <command_button> or <command_link>:
1. ActionListeners registered using a nested <action_listener> tag.
2. An action listener method declared using the actionlistener attribute.
3. An action method declared using the action attribute.
I don't think the spec defines a relative ordering for all of these possible event handlers, but I
think it works like this:
A. All the action listeners are called in an undefined order. This takes care of all those in
category (1) above. Since one of the listeners is the system-defined default listener,
at some point during this processing, the action method (which is REALLY the application code)
is also called. However, since the spec is vague, you don't really know where this happens relative to
the other listeners.
B. The method referred by the actionlistener attribute in category 2 above is called.
I would have thought that the most intuitive order would be:
1. All of the action listeners, whether added using <action_listener> or declared using the
actionlistener attribute.
2. The method referred to by the action attribute (i.e. the real application code).
I think the current implementation, where (2) is done by a system-defined actionlistener, gets in the
way of achieving this, and that would have to change in order to produce a well-defined result.

Modal dialog - refresh the parent page on close

Hi:
Using Apex 4.02
I have followied Havard Kristiansen's modal dialog example.
I have everyting working, but I have a requreimet to refresh the entire page (parent page) on the close of the modal page.
I have tried quite a few things in dynamic actions on the parent page etc, but nothing is working.
How can I get the parent page to fully refresh when the modal dialog is submitted and closed.
Your help would be most appreciated.
Regards,
Bruce

Hi:
Please - still waiting for help.
Here is what I have tired:
- dynamic action on iframe for page unload to call window.opener.doSubmit() and parent.doSubmit();
- dynamic action on button on ifreame same as above
- branch (plsql) process to call above
None of these worked. The modal dialog closes but the parent page dos not refesh.
I can refresh a report region, but the problem is that the region I want to actually refresh is conditional and is not displayed when you first open the modal dialog. Hence, it does not appear on the return even though the condition is now true.
Any help would be appreciated please!

Bruce

How To Reload The JSF page

Hi all,
I am working on an application in which I have three inter-related tables ( Master-Detail-Detail ). I created two forms and one table from the datasources of these Master-Detail-Detail table. I added corresponding createInsert
and commit operations for each of my form and table on the JSF page. The tables have 3 colums one of which is generated by a sequence in the database. I am displaying that as an output text in my page. When I am creating the new row in that table it is not getting displayed till I reload the page by hitting the url. based on that value I should create the rows in the other tables.
The application should work in the below fashion
1. I should able to create a row in the first table using CreateInsert operation. ---> I am able to create and could see the row in the db
2. I should able to create a row in the second table which is child of first table. Dynamically it should take the value of one of the tables attribute for foreign key. ---> This is happening only if I reload the page manually by hitting
the url....but not happening if I dont reload it. I guess the Iterator is not getting refreshsed.
I need to reload the page either programmatically or using ADF Configuration. Please help me in doing that.
Thanks in Advance

Did you set up a composite relationship between the master and detail?
This should take care of automatically bringing in the right master id into new records you are creating in the detail part.
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E16162_01/web.1112/e16182/bcentities.htm#sm0150
Also instead of doing a full page reload, it would probably be better to do a partial page refresh for the section you need to refresh.

ReturnToPortal() doesn't refresh the portal page

In the community preference page, when finishing changing the preference, calling IPortletResponse.ReturnToPortal() closed the preference page but didn't refresh the portal page. What needs to be done to refresh the portal page so the portlet can be refreshed with the new pref data?
ALUI 6.1MP1.
TIA!

This is why it doesn't work...
There is a bug that I filed for this, basically that icon on the portlet header works for user and admin preferences... it make sense to add community preferences there too to make it all consistent.
The problem is: community preferences behaved differently.. in 5.x, the only way to edit them was to go through edit this community... the refresh mechanism is built into the community editor.
In g6 that didn't change... you still need to go through that route to actually update the portal with the new preferences. going through the icon does nothing. user and admin prefs will work b/c they also worked like that in 5.x.
Basically, it's a bug b/c community prefs never worked like that... adding it to the button promoted the sense that it should work, which it never did...
so you have to go through the edit this community route to make it refresh.

Action method called in standalone OC4j but not OAS

I am setting up a test environment on Solaris x86 machine and have run into an odd issue concerning an action method being called which seems to be an issue for Oracle Application Server (OAS) but not an issue for stand alone OC4J.
The application is using Java 5, Spring 2.5, Java Servlet 2.3, Struts 2, iBatis 2.2, Sitemesh, and Display Tag to name some of the parts that are in play.
The platform is a Sun Fire X2100 server running Solaris 10 OS (64-bit). The application server version is 10.1.3 (Solaris x86, 64-bit) connecting to Oracle database server 10.2.0.2.0 (Solaris x86, 32-bit). The stand alone OC4J that I used for comparison was 10.1.3.4.0 (also run under the same Solaris machine but not while the application server was running).
Going from one JSP that contains a list of items ("authority ids" in this case) to another JSP which displays detailed information about one item (chosen by clicking on a hyperlink in the list), it appears that the setter action method (which sets the 'sid' property) does not get called under OAS so the page displays empty fields. Same code running under the stand alone OC4J, the setter method does get called and the fields are populated on the details page. In both cases, both deployments are hitting the same database and the data is successfully retrieved from the database (into the action class). In both cases, the parameter that is set by this action method is present in the URL for the detail page.
Snippet of code from the JSP that loads the authority ID list (and passes the sid in the URL):
<display:table name="authorityIdList" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" requestURI=""
    defaultsort="1" id="authorityIdTypes" pagesize="25" class="table" export="true">
    <s:url id="editurl" action="editAuthorityId" includeContext="false">
      <s:param name="redirectUrl" value="%{returnUrl}"/>
    </s:url>
    <display:column property="fieldName" escapeXml="true" sortable="true" titleKey="authorityIdType.fieldName"; style="width: 34%" url="${editurl}"
      media="html csv xml excel pdf" paramId="sid" paramProperty="sid"/>Snippet from the authority ID detail form where the sid should be populated:
<tr style="display: none"><td>
      <s:hidden key="sid"/>
        <s:hidden name="redirectUrl"/>
    </td></tr>Snippet from the action class that contains the setter for the sid property:
public Integer getSid() {
        return sid;
public void setSid(Integer sid) {
        this.sid = sid;
}Snippet from the resulting html page for the list includes the sid for each item in the list.
<td style="width: 34%">DODAAC</td>
<td style="width: 25%">DODAAC</td></tr>
<tr class="even">
<td style="width: 34%">DODAAN</td>
<td style="width: 25%">DODAAN</td></tr></tbody></table>Under the stand alone OC4J, the setter method is called, so the sid is populated (and the item detail data from the action is retrieved and displayed).
Snippet from the resulting detail html page from the stand alone OC4J:
    <tr style="display: none"><td>
         <input type="hidden" name="sid" value="1" id="saveAuthorityId_sid"/>
        <input type="hidden" name="redirectUrl" value="http://system01:8888/MyApp/admin/authorityIdTypes.html"; id="saveAuthorityId_redirectUrl"/>
    </td>Notice that the sid value as well as the redirectUrl value are populated under standalone OC4J.
Under OAS, the setter method is not called, so the sid is not set (and none of the other item detail fields are populated).
Snippet from the resulting detail html page from OAS:
   <tr style="display: none"><td>
         <input type="hidden" name="sid" value="" id="saveAuthorityId_ sid"/>
        <input type="hidden" name="redirectUrl" value="" id="saveAuthorityId_redirectUrl"/>
    </td>Notice that the sid value as well as the redirectUrl value are empty under OAS.
Any ideas on what I need to change in OAS configuration to make this work under OAS (if this is a configuration issue)?

I found another case that may be clearer.
A confirmation page on the application server shows that the redirect url is not being populated:
<form id="confirmation" name="confirmation" onsubmit="return true;" action="/MyApp/admin/confirmation.html" method="post"><table class="wwFormTable">
     <input type="hidden" name="redirectUrl" value="" id="confirmation_redirectUrl"/>
   <tr>
    <td colspan="2"><div align="right"><input type="submit" id="confirmation_continue" name="method:proceed" value="Continue"/>
</div></td>
</tr>
</table></form>Same code running on the standalone OC4j does populate the redirect URL:
<form id="confirmation" name="confirmation" onsubmit="return true;" action="/MyApp/admin/confirmation.html" method="post"><table class="wwFormTable">
     <input type="hidden" name="redirectUrl" value="http://system01:8888/MyApp/admin/users.html" id="confirmation_redirectUrl"/>
   <tr>
    <td colspan="2"><div align="right"><input type="submit" id="confirmation_continue" name="method:proceed" value="Continue"/>
</div></td>
</tr>
</table></form>So it appears that the application server is having problems passing parameters to pages.
I have been digging through Oracle documentation, but I haven't found any clues on how to fix the issue.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,

Dashboard prompt Refreshes the whole page

Hello Experts
When i change a dashboar prompt on the dashboard, it refreshes the whole page instead of that one report where the dashboard prompt applies. How can i limit to just refresh or update only the reports it is suppose to instead of all the reports on the dashboard page. Please advise.
Thanks
Ravi

I agree to what you are saying, in my case if i have 3 reports on the dashboard page only report is is prompted the other two reports are not, still those reports gets refreshed which means i get processing rotating clock on all the 3 reports even though the 2 reports dont change with the prompt selection and then all the report appears. It is just annoying for the users, so i just want that one report to update or refrsh and the other reports should stay still. Hope i am little clear this time.
Thanks

SelectedItem return null when hit the NEXT page or Submit

Hello All,
I try to add the paging to the open source Alfresco content management. We need to process a large dataset (e.g. > 50K files) so after we gather a list of data files we display them with the checkbox and each checkbox has default checked status.
If the value="#{FixItemList.selectedItems} is omitted in the <h:selectManyCheckbox> then the paging is fine when hitting the NEXT page or Submit button. If we set the value in the selectManyCheckbox then it returns null for selectedItems.

I put the print out statement in the _SelectItemsIterator and found out that the selected item's value doesn't binding. How would I be able to select an item? Attached is the code with debug print out in the SelectItemsIterator.

Hi.
I'm develping EM plugin with EM 11 extensibility.
Is it possible to auto refresh the home page or report page?
It contains the view data(real time 30 sec page..) select list combo at the matric detail page.
and it is displayed on the right of the top at the database main page
Thanks,

Also, there are enhancements in progress to the extensibility framework which will, in future versions of EM, allow this type of control over chart/table refresh for plugins.

How do I make an embedded Javascript element(embedded MS Excel chart) automatically refresh so that viewers do not have to refresh the entire page to get updated information.

I am creating a web page that features an embedded chart made by MS Excel. I would like the chart to automatically update(refresh) to show viewers live information without having to refresh the entire page. I have found that there is a way to enable this through Excel but with my current subscription cannot access that feature. I am hoping that there is a way to achieve this using Adobe Muse CC. If it is not possible, I would like to know if there is a way to add a "refresh" button that refreshes only the embedded section(Excel Chart) of the page for viewers to use manually. Thank you for your help.

Update! The embedded spreadsheet is actually embedded using HTML rather than javascript.

HTML result gets truncated after including of the JSF page

Hi there,
I'm trying to create a page that will include dynamically content of JSF pages from another web application.
Thus, there is a web application (Pages) that is deployed under web context: /test-pages and another web application (Faces) that is deployed under web context: /test-faces.
The source code of /test-pages/IndexPage.jsp
<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8"></meta>
<title>
IndexPage
</title>
</head>
<body>
<h3>Page Start</h3>
<jsp:include page="header.jsp"/>
<br>
<h1>Index Page of the test-pages application</h1>
<br>
<jsp:include page="footer.jsp"/>
</body>
</html>
The source code of /test-pages/header.jsp
<%
ServletContext servletContext = request.getSession().getServletContext().getContext("/test-faces");
RequestDispatcher reqDispatcher = servletContext.getRequestDispatcher("/faces/header.jsp");
reqDispatcher.include(request, response);
%>
The source code of /test-pages/footer.jsp
<h2>Simple Footer</h2>
The source code of /test-faces/header.jsp
<%@ taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/jsf/core" prefix="f"%>
<%@ taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/jsf/html" prefix="h"%>
<f:subview id="myID">
     <f:verbatim>
          <h2>Faces Header</h2>
     </f:verbatim>
</f:subview>
The HTML execution result (http://localhost:7001/test-pages/IndexPage.jsp):
<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8"></meta>
<title>
IndexPage
</title>
</head>
<body>
<h3>Page Start</h3>
     <h2>Faces Header</h2>
Could you help me understand, why the result gets truncated after including of the JSF page.
Thanks,
Sasha

Thanks you for reply!
Unfortunately, still no luck!
Any other ideas will be highly appreciated!

When at the "results" page of a search, clicking on "blue" link does not display webpage. Copying "green" urldoes.

When at the "results" page of a search, clicking on "blue" link does not display webpage although url is shown in address bar. Copying "green" url, shown at bottom of a result, into address bar and hitting "enter" goes to the address and displays the page. Have tried different selections at tools/options with no change. Is there some other setting that needs to be changed?

Sorry, this is bad reply. I wanted to write this reply to another question.
