Cancel Command Button not working because of required fields

Hello,

I have a VF page associated with a controller extension with the "cancel" method, using PageReference. When I call the cancel method in the VF page, it works well.

However, I get an error message "you must enter a value" when I click on the Cancel button, because some fields on the page are required. If I fill in those fields, I can then cancel without problems.

Does anybody have any idea how to work around that?

Thanks a lot

Thanks very much Jill!

I have another quick question. Do you happen to know if dependent picklists are supported by VF?

Thanks.

Not currently.  It is on the roadmap though.

Ok, thanks for the quick answers.

I don't seem to need to specify immediate="true" for Cancel button.

 

PageReference setRedirect works fine with required fields blanked out.

 

Visualforce has updated this behaviour?
