Welcome to the PrimeFaces. Could you post your code snippet what do you try to do?

Refer the URL below. It is any/everything you need to know about manipulating JSF dataTables. It may be older logic, but it is fundamental JSF. I've had to refer to this page to help me do the same. Basically, what you want to do is modify the value in your List<Object> in your bean, and then the value will be displayed on the JSF page/facelet. I had to do the same for using p:dataTable for allowing enduser to modify Address Lines (123 Some Street, Apartment 3, etc...) that belong to an Address data structure.

hi Oleg,

after i try again and look to the primefaces showcase, i already know why yesterday my inputtext not updated with data that selected from datatable(thank you growl ), it's caused by required attribute and validation in my POJO, is there a way to bypass the validation and required atributte ?

here is my code :

Code: Select all

<h:body>
        <p:growl id="growl" autoUpdate="true" showDetail="true" />
        <h:form id="carForm">
            <h:panelGrid id="carPanel" columns="2">
                <h:outputLabel value="Name :" for="name" />
                <h:panelGroup id="carGroup">                            
                    <p:inputText id="name" value="#{carController.selected.name}" required="true" />
                    <p:commandButton value="..." onclick="carBrowseDialog.show();" />
                </h:panelGroup>
                <h:outputLabel value="Color :" for="color" />
                <p:inputText id="color" value="#{carController.selected.color}" />
            </h:panelGrid>
        </h:form >
        <p:dialog widgetVar="carBrowseDialog" header="Car List" showEffect="clip" hideEffect="clip">
        <h:form >            
            <p:dataTable value="#{carController.items}" 
                         selection="#{carController.selected}" 
                         selectionMode="single"
                         rowKey="#{item.name}"
                         var="item"
                         paginator="true" rows="10"  
                         paginatorTemplate="{CurrentPageReport}  {FirstPageLink} {PreviousPageLink} {PageLinks} {NextPageLink} {LastPageLink} {RowsPerPageDropdown}"  
                         rowsPerPageTemplate="5,10,15">
                <p:column headerText="Name">
                    <h:outputText value="#{item.name}"/>
                </p:column>
                <p:column headerText="Color">
                    <h:outputText value="#{item.color}"/>
                </p:column>                
                <f:facet name="footer">  
                    <p:commandButton value="Select" image="ui-icon ui-icon-search"  
                                     update="carForm:carPanel carForm:color" oncomplete="carBrowseDialog.hide();" />  
                </f:facet>
            </p:dataTable>
        </h:form>
        </p:dialog>
    </h:body>

inputtext with id=color not updated if required = true.
