Two tables on the same page. Is it possible?

Question

Hi all,
I followed the multi-slect sample in Winston's blog and everything is working. However, when I tried to put two tables on the same page, the selections are all messed up. When I looked at the code again I realized the line
RowKey rowKey = (RowKey)getValue("#{currentRow.tableRow}");
in the setSelected(Object object) method.
In the case that there are more than one tables on one page, how does the code which table it is refering to? Or how the code should be different so we can have multi tables with selectable rows on the same page? Thnx.

Thanks. But how do you tie the TableSelectPhaseListeners to their respected tables.
This is Winston's code for row select (1 table)
private TableSelectPhaseListener tablePhaseListener = new TableSelectPhaseListener();
public void setSelected(Object object) {
RowKey rowKey = (RowKey)getValue("#{currentRow.tableRow}");
if (rowKey != null) {
tablePhaseListener.setSelected(rowKey, object);
public Object getSelected(){
RowKey rowKey = (RowKey)getValue("#{currentRow.tableRow}");
return tablePhaseListener.getSelected(rowKey);
public Object getSelectedValue() {
RowKey rowKey = (RowKey)getValue("#{currentRow.tableRow}");
return (rowKey != null) ? rowKey.getRowId() : null;
public boolean getSelectedState() {
RowKey rowKey = (RowKey)getValue("#{currentRow.tableRow}");
return tablePhaseListener.isSelected(rowKey);
For two tables. Do I just repeat the code like this?
private TableSelectPhaseListener tablePhaseListener1 = new TableSelectPhaseListener();
public void setSelected1(Object object) {
RowKey rowKey = (RowKey)getValue("#{currentRow.tableRow}");
if (rowKey != null) {
tablePhaseListener1.setSelected(rowKey, object);
public Object getSelected1(){
RowKey rowKey = (RowKey)getValue("#{currentRow.tableRow}");
return tablePhaseListener1.getSelected(rowKey);
public Object getSelectedValue1() {
RowKey rowKey = (RowKey)getValue("#{currentRow.tableRow}");
return (rowKey != null) ? rowKey.getRowId() : null;
public boolean getSelectedState1() {
RowKey rowKey = (RowKey)getValue("#{currentRow.tableRow}");
return tablePhaseListener1.isSelected(rowKey);
private TableSelectPhaseListener tablePhaseListener2 = new TableSelectPhaseListener();
public void setSelected2(Object object) {
RowKey rowKey = (RowKey)getValue("#{currentRow.tableRow}");
if (rowKey != null) {
tablePhaseListener2.setSelected(rowKey, object);
public Object getSelected()2{
RowKey rowKey = (RowKey)getValue("#{currentRow.tableRow}");
return tablePhaseListener2.getSelected(rowKey);
public Object getSelectedValue2() {
RowKey rowKey = (RowKey)getValue("#{currentRow.tableRow}");
return (rowKey != null) ? rowKey.getRowId() : null;
public boolean getSelectedState2() {
RowKey rowKey = (RowKey)getValue("#{currentRow.tableRow}");
return tablePhaseListener2.isSelected(rowKey);
