[jboss-user] [JBoss Seam] - Update transactions occurring prematurely in Seam app

[asookazian]

This may be a EntityManager flush issue but not sure...

I have the following xhtml for a Seam2.0.0.GA web app backed by 2 SFSB's (one conversation scoped and the other session scoped).  The problem is when user clicks 'yes' for any radio button in any row of the form/dataTable, an update transaction is persisted to the database for that row/column.  The update should only happen when user clicks submit in one of the rich:modalPanel forms.

I've ran this test case thru the debugger several times and the submit method is not being called.  I'm thinking the EntityManager/PersistenceContext is being automatically flushed somehow but not sure if or when this is happening.  I did remove the a4j:support tag for one of the columns and moved the js function call to onclick event handler.  The table did not get updated like before.  So somehow the a4j:support is causing this to happen I think...

Any hints?  thx.
