Hi, The following assumes that you are using 'single' as the selection strategy for the table.
try the following:
1. declare a global variable iframeSource with getter and setter methods.
2. set the autoSubmit property of the table to true
3. add a selectionListener method to the table; and in that write the following code
RowKeySet keys = table.getSelectedRowKeys();
Iterator iterator = keys.iterator();
while(iterator.hasNext()){
Your-RowObject-Containing-URL urlobject =(Your-RowObject-Containing-URL) iterator.next(); // may be the object is simple string in your case.
iframeSource=urlobject.getURL();
4. wrap your iframe in a trinidad's panelGroupLayout or any other container component to make use of PPR :
<tr:panelGroupLayout partialTriggers="table-id" >
<iframe src="#{your-backing-bean.iframeSource}" .... .... .... />
</tr:panelGroupLayout>
With that, when ever a row is clicked in the table the content of the iframe gets updated with the content from the selected url.
