Hey Everyone,

I've got this issue and I'm stumped.

I have a Visualforce page with an HTML table. One of the cells has a number of components, Outputtext, inputtext, and 3 command links that are rendered based on some boolean values I have. For the most part things work, but I've run in an issue.

<apex:inputText> element value must resolve to a String type!

This is perplexing since the input text isn't rendered, and the the value that it would've been rendered if present should be valid (considering I just entered it, it's saved as a Integer, but that shouldn't cause an issue).

I'm simply stumped! Anyone see this? If I comment out the inputtext it works fine -- but I need an input text field to allow user entry.

Table of the VF page:

<apex:page controller="Imp_Forecast_Controller" tabStyle="Imp_Forecast__c" > <apex:form id="MyForm"> <apex:pageblock title="My Forecast" id="MyForecastBlock"> <apex:pageblocksection title="{!PeriodDate1a} bOverride1: {!bOverride1} OverRideSave1: {!OverRideSave1}" id="PeriodSection1" columns="1"> <apex:outputpanel id="FieldOutput1" > <Table cellpadding="15px" width="100%"> <tr> <td style="font-weight:bold;">Implementer</td> <td style="font-weight:bold;">Commit</td> <td style="font-weight:bold;">Actual Live</td> <td style="font-weight:bold;">Projected</td> <td style="font-weight:bold;">Comment</td> </tr> <tr> <td>{!ThisUser.Name}</td> <td> <apex:outputtext value="{!Period1Imps}" rendered="{!bOverRide1 == false}" /> <apex:outputtext value="{!Override1}" rendered="{!OverRideSave1 == true && bOverride1 == true}" style="color:red;font-weight:bold;"/> <apex:inputtext value="{!Override1}" rendered="false" /> <!-- rendered="{!bOverRide1 == true && OverrideSave1 == false}" /> --> &nbsp; <apex:commandlink value="Save" action="{!ParseActions}" ReRender="MyForecastBlock, Forecast" rendered="{!OverRideSave1 ==false && bOverRide1 == true}"> <apex:param name="PeriodID" value="1"/> <apex:param name="Action" value="Save" /> </apex:commandlink> &nbsp; <apex:commandlink value="Cancel Override" action="{!ParseActions}" ReRender="MyForecastBlock, Forecast" rendered="{!bOverRide1 == true}" > <apex:param name="PeriodID" value="1"/> <apex:param name="Action" value="Cancel" /> </apex:commandlink> &nbsp; <apex:commandlink value="Override" action="{!ParseActions}" ReRender="MyForecastBlock, Forecast" rendered="{!bOverride1 == false}" > <!-- > || OverRideSave1 == true}"> --> <apex:param name="PeriodID" value="1"/> <apex:param name="Action" value="OverRide" /> </apex:commandlink> </td> <td>{!Period1LiveImps}</td> <td>{!Period1ProjectedImps}</td> </tr> </Table> </apex:outputpanel> </apex:pageblocksection> </apex:pageblock> </apex:form> </apex:page>

Controller method (which gets called from all the other command links properly but not my cancel button)

public PageReference ParseActions() { system.debug('Start ParseActions!!'); string PeriodID = getParam('PeriodID'); string Action = getParam('Action'); system.debug('THIS IS THE PERIODID: ' + PeriodID); system.debug('THIS IS THE ACTION: ' + Action); if(Action == 'Save') { if(PeriodID =='1'){OverRideSave1=true;Period1 = OverRide1;} if(PeriodID =='2'){OverRideSave2=true;Period2 = OverRide2;} if(PeriodID =='3'){OverRideSave3=true;Period3 = OverRide3;} } if(Action == 'OverRide') { OverRide1 = 2; if(PeriodID =='1'){bOverRide1 = true;} if(PeriodID =='2'){bOverRide2 = true;} if(PeriodID =='3'){bOverRide3 = true;} } if(Action == 'Cancel') { if(PeriodID =='1'){bOverRide1= false; OverRideSave1 = False;Period1 = Period1Imps;OverRide1 =0;} if(PeriodID =='2'){bOverRide2= false; OverRideSave2 = False;Period2 = Period2Imps;OverRide2 =0;} if(PeriodID =='3'){bOverRide3= false; OverRideSave3 = False;Period3 = Period3Imps;OverRide3 =0;} } system.debug('VALUES!!!'); system.debug('Priod1Imps: ' + Period1Imps); system.debug('Priod2Imps: ' + Period2Imps); system.debug('Priod3Imps: ' + Period3Imps); system.debug('Period1: ' + Period1); system.debug('Period2: ' + Period2); system.debug('Period3: ' + Period3); system.debug('OverRide1: ' + OverRide1); system.debug('OverRide2: ' + OverRide2); system.debug('OverRide3: ' + OverRide3); system.debug('BOOLEANS!!!'); system.debug('bOverRide1: ' + bOverRide1); system.debug('bOverRide2: ' + bOverRide2); system.debug('bOverRide3: ' + bOverRide3); system.debug('OverRideSave1: ' + OverRideSave1); system.debug('OverRideSave2: ' + OverRideSave2); system.debug('OverRideSave3: ' + OverRideSave3); return null; }
