i have an element inside an ajax4jsf outputPanel. i discovered that the rendered="/testcode/" test is not re-evaluated on a re-Render trigger from an ajax button. it feels to me like a bug. Code: <a:outputPanel id="document_list_panel" ajaxRendered="true"> <h:outputText value="No documents to display" rendered="#{hits.rowCount==0}" /> View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4055573#...
