Command Button in Dynamically rendered outputPanel - BUG?

Hey guys,

 

Ran into an issue which looks like a bug to me.

 

So I have some controls for a VF page at the top inside an output panel. The output panel is rendered based on a certain value in the custom controller I am using. Now when i try and use the command buttons inside the panel, the page just refreshes and the action method is not hit at all.

 

<apex:outputPanel rendered="{!statusCode == 200}">
<table style="width:100%;">
<tr>
<td style="vertical-align: middle;">

<apex:commandButton action="{!RedirectToReports}" title="PDF" value="PDF" ></apex:commandButton>

</td>

</tr>

</table>

</apex:outputPanel>

 

If I remove [ rendered="{!statusCode == 200}" ] then the page works correctly and the buttons do what they are meant to.

 

Is this by design or have i stumbled upon a really basic bug?

 

Cheers

I am going to move this into the Visual Force development discussion as that is probably more appropriate

It is common behavior of the command button, You need to specify re-render attribute for command button so as to partial refresh your selected component(avoid whole page refresh).
