I have a simple pageBlock with a required field and a button in it. The button calls a method from the controller and then rerenders the pageBlock. The issue is, when the rerender happens if the field is blank I get an error (Error: You must enter a value) and the pageBlock doesn't get rerendered. I don't want any validation at this stage; I just want the PB to rerender that's all.

Any ideas on how to do that would be nice.

I have a visual force page that was created in Summer 10 in my FCS to update cases.

The page allowed the user to change the case status and also create an entry into a customer object and create a case comment all from the same page.

It was working perfect in until today.  the only change was my Sandbox was updated to Spring 10.

Now whenever I try to update the case from the Visual Force Page I get the following error:

System.DmlException: Update failed. First exception on row 0 with id 50030000005o8ETAAY; first error: FIELD_INTEGRITY_EXCEPTION, No selected contact: [ContactId]

If I edit the case from GUI I do not get the error.  If I select a contact (Which is not a required field) and then execute the visual force page ot works fine.

What has chnaged in Spring 10 that is causing this to happen.

Any help is apprciated.

Here is the page:
