[richfaces-issues] [JBoss JIRA] Commented: (RF-11306) [rich:tabPanel] allow usage of form-elements inside tabs

From the beginning before trying to add the code double-check that JSF 2 itself allows that (both myFaces and Mojara).

[rich:tabPanel] allow usage of form-elements inside tabs -------------------------------------------------------- Key: RF-11306 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/RF-11306 Project: RichFaces Issue Type: Feature Request Security Level: Public(Everyone can see) Components: component-panels-layout-themes Affects Versions: 4.0.0.Final Reporter: Rene O Fix For: 4.2.0.Tracking Currently you must surround <rich:tabPanel> with <h:form>-element if you use switchType="ajax" or switchType="server". It should be possible, like in Richfaces 3, that a form-element outside of rich:tabPanel is not needed. A common usecase is the usage of an include-fragment which contains a form. <rich:tabPanel switchType="ajax"> <rich:tab> <h:form if="form1"> ... </h:form> </rich:tab> <rich:tab> <ui:include .../> </rich:tab> </rich:tabPanel> definition of include: <ui:composition > ... <h:form if="formOfInclude"> ... </h:form> </ui:composition > Currently it is not possible to design the pages in such way cause of nesting form-elements
