JSF+Primefaces p:ajax on p:selectOneMenu not firing

jsf, primefaces

Solution

I changed

<p:ajax update="start_date_search, end_date_search" 
        event="change" 
        actionListener="#{accountHistoryBean.resetDates}"
        process="account_search"/>

For

<p:ajax update="start_date_search, end_date_search" 
        event="change"
        listener="#{accountHistoryBean.resetDates}" 
        process="account_search"/>

and it worked.

Thanks

Problem

I have a dropdown that holds an account number and two date fields. I want to reset the date fields if I change the value of the dropdown. I also have a search button that make a query using these fields (account #, from date, to date). ``` <fieldset> <p:selectOneMenu id="account_search" value="#{accountHistoryBean.account}" converter="accountConverter"> <f:attribute name="itemsList" value="#{accountHistoryBean.userAccounts}"/> <f:selectItems value="#{accountHistoryBean.userAccounts}" var="account" itemLabel="#{account.number}" itemValue="#{account}"/> <p:ajax update="start_date_search, end_date_search" event="change" actionListener="#{accountHistoryBean.resetDates}" process="account_search"/> </p:selectOneMenu> <fieldset> <fieldset> <p:calendar value="#{accountHistoryBean.fromDate}" id="start_date_search" pattern="dd/MM/yyyy"/> </fieldset> <fieldset> <p:calendar value="#{accountHistoryBean.toDate}" id="end_date_search" pattern="dd/MM/yyyy"/> </fieldset> <fieldset> <p:commandLink styleClass="regular_button" action="#{accountHistoryBean.search}" update=":search :accountHistoryList :accountHistoryList:accountHistTable" > <span>#{msj.search}</span> </p:commandLink> </fieldset> ``` If I do the following: - Change "from Date" and "to Date" fields - Change account field (dropdown with ajax). Then the dates are resetted to their default value. But if I do the following: - Change "from Date" and "to Date" fields to DATEX AND DATEY - Press search - Change "from Date" and "to Date" fields to DATEX2 AND DATEY2 - Change account field (dropdown with ajax). Then it changes the Date field to DATEX and DATEY (not the default values). The methods in the Bean are the following: ``` public void resetDates() { Calendar calendar = GregorianCalendar.getInstance(); //By default set toDate as 3/3 calendar.set(Calendar.MONTH, 2); calendar.set(Calendar.DAY_OF_MONTH, 3); toDate = calendar.getTime(); //By default fromDate is one month earlier calendar.setTime(toDate); calendar.add(Calendar.MONTH, -1); fromDate = calendar.getTime(); } public String search(){ //Just update the filters lazyDataEntityModel.setUpdateData(true); return null; } ``` Any help?
