I am trying to move p:dialogfrom h:formbecause I read that this is the preferred way (however, I would like to understand the reason because my p:dialoginside a formworks well in my application).
The only difficulty is that the title of the dialog needs to be updated dynamically. A dialog box appears when button c is pressed p:dataTable.
Here is my old xhtml (before changes) that works fine:
<p:dataTable var="event" value="#{eventBean.lazyModel}" selection="#{eventBean.selectedEvent}" />
...
<p:column headerText="#{msgs.Persons}">
<p:commandButton value="#{msgs.ViewPersons}" update=":viewPersonsForm" oncomplete="viewPersonsDlg.show()">
<f:setPropertyActionListener value="#{event}" target="#{eventBean.selectedEvent}" />
</p:commandButton>
</p:column>
</p:dataTable>
<h:form id="viewPersonsForm">
<p:dialog modal="true" widgetVar="viewPersonsDlg" dynamic="true" header="#{eventBean.selectedEvent.name}" >
...
</p:dialog>
</h:form>
And here is the new xhtml, with eventBean # setSelectedEvent (), which is not being called.
<p:dataTable var="event" value="#{eventBean.lazyModel}" selection="#{eventBean.selectedEvent}" />
...
<p:column headerText="#{msgs.Persons}">
<p:commandButton value="#{msgs.ViewPersons}" update=":viewPersonsDlgId" oncomplete="jQuery('#viewPersonsDlgId .ui-dialog-title').text('#{eventBean.selectedEvent.name}');viewPersonsDlg.show()">
<f:setPropertyActionListener value="#{event}" target="#{eventBean.selectedEvent}" />
</p:commandButton>
</p:column>
</p:dataTable>
<p:dialog modal="true" id="viewPersonsDlgId" widgetVar="viewPersonsDlg" dynamic="true" >
...
</p:dialog>
So, again, why is the eventBean # setSelectedEvent () not called in the second script? And, if possible, why is the first scenario not optimal?
