Rerender not working with command button

<apex:commandButton action="{!save}" reRender="tableApp"  value="Save"/>

 I have a save button in Vf page and when the reRender tag is given the button doesnt seem to work. It would nt perform the save operation. When i remove the reRender tag it works fine.

 

I want a pageblock to be rerendered after the record is saved.

 

Any ideas?

for standard actions u can't rerender the components... go for custom action and save it in the controller.. then it will works for u

I am not sure if i understood what you said.

 

I do have the save method in the controller and in the action i am calling the method called save in the controller.

Hi,

 

Try this,

 

<apex:commandLink action="{!save}"> 
<apex:commandButton  value="Save"/>
</apex:commandLink>

Is the pageBlock you're trying to re-render the same page block that holds the Save commandButton? If that's the case, you might want to try re-defining the area to re-rerender by putting an <apex:outputPanel id="tableApp"> around the pageBlockSections that you want to re-render...and keep the commandButton outside that outputPanel section. 

 

It might also help to check your browser's javascript console to see if you're getting any errors.

No, its not the block where we have the save button, i am rerendering a different block .

hmm. Does your save() method return null? Or is it returning something else? I've seen other posts where returning null works rather than returning the current page reference.

Kevin,

 

Save method returns null.
