The corresponding bean is:

public class CompanyPerson {

private String citizenshipNumber;

private String name;

private String country;

private String phoneNumber;

private String mobileNumber;

private String emailAddress;

private String citizenshipFilePath;

private String isShareHolder;

private String isBoardOfDirector;

private String isPromoter;

public CompanyPerson() {

}

public String getCitizenshipNumber() {

return citizenshipNumber;

}

public void setCitizenshipNumber(String citizenshipNumber) {

this.citizenshipNumber = citizenshipNumber;

}

public String getName() {

return name;

}

public void setName(String name) {

this.name = name;

}

public String getCountry() {

return country;

}

public void setCountry(String country) {

this.country = country;

}

public String getPhoneNumber() {

return phoneNumber;

}

public void setPhoneNumber(String phoneNumber) {

this.phoneNumber = phoneNumber;

}

public String getMobileNumber() {

return mobileNumber;

}

public void setMobileNumber(String mobileNumber) {

this.mobileNumber = mobileNumber;

}

public String getEmailAddress() {

return emailAddress;

}

public void setEmailAddress(String emailAddress) {

this.emailAddress = emailAddress;

}

public int getTemporaryAddressId() {

return temporaryAddressId;

}

public void setTemporaryAddressId(int temporaryAddressId) {

this.temporaryAddressId = temporaryAddressId;

}

public int getPermanentAddressId() {

return permanentAddressId;

}

public void setPermanentAddressId(int permanentAddressId) {

this.permanentAddressId = permanentAddressId;

}

public String getCitizenshipFilePath() {

return citizenshipFilePath;

}

public void setCitizenshipFilePath(String citizenshipFilePath) {

this.citizenshipFilePath = citizenshipFilePath;

}

public String getIsShareHolder() {

return isShareHolder;

}

public void setIsShareHolder(String isShareHolder) {

this.isShareHolder = isShareHolder;

}

public String getIsBoardOfDirector() {

return isBoardOfDirector;

}

public void setIsBoardOfDirector(String isBoardOfDirector) {

this.isBoardOfDirector = isBoardOfDirector;

}

public String getIsPromoter() {

return isPromoter;

}

public void setIsPromoter(String isPromoter) {

this.isPromoter = isPromoter;

}

}

No all the properties of the bean has been bind to components.

I also have value change listener methods for two drop down lists whose immediate property is set to true to bypass the validation. If i change the dropdownlist selection then its value change listener method is successfully invoked, then after if i click the submit button, then it will works.[/nobr]

Ok

I finally found the root cause of the problem. Actually i have set the immediate property of two dropdownlist that i have used to "true" in order to bypass the validation of the other components.

The code snippet is given below:

public void tempDistrictDropDown_processValueChange(ValueChangeEvent event) {

try {

getSessionBean1().getCro_areaRowSet1().setObject(1,tempDistrictDropDown.getValue());

tempAreaDataProvider.refresh();

} catch (SQLException ex) {

ex.printStackTrace();

}

FacesContext context = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance();

context.renderResponse();

}

If i remove the immediate property or if i remove the following lines of code which is in the above method:

FacesContext context = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance(); context.renderResponse();

the action of the button is invoked in first click.

But i am still confused with this problem although i get it working any how.

What can be the reason behind that.

Also i need to bypass the validation when dropdown list is changed.

How can i achive that.

Thanks,

That helped a lot to get the insight of JSF lifecycle.

Now how can i accomplish the problem then.

I want to bypass the validation when the dropdownlist is changed and want the validation to be done only when the submit button is clicked.

Actually i did that by the help of some other posts.

As i have made my input fields as "required field" if i dont set immediate property true and don't use the line:

FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().renderResponse();

the validation is done even if i change the dropdown list as the page gets submitted when the dropdownlist is changed.

I just want to skip the validation phase when the dropdownlist is changed

Thanks in advance

Yw :)

Although I personally find it a nasty way to find out if any action is fired in the request.

I personally should find it useful if FacesContext provides a method to check whether an ActionEvent has been fired and if so, which one it is.

Digging in the requestParameterMap isn't a very gently solution.
