Webflow with Primefaces Dialog window search

amy

Hello,

I have a (Primefaces) dialog window that I'm using within one of my webflow view-states. This dialog is opened with a button on the main page of the initial view state. In the dialog, there are two forms with a command button in each. The first form has a simple search input box, and the command button quot;Searchquot; is responsible for sending the search keyword to the back-end and retrieving an object which is then supposed to be used to populate the second form (which is then submitted with the second quot;Savequot; button).

What is the best way to handle this situation with webflow? I want to be able to keep the dialog open until the Save button is pressed.

If I create an action state for the Search button, I have to have a transition which would presumably take me to the initial view-state, in which case the dialog is closed. The same thing happens if I have only one state (the initial one) and include an evaluation statement to call the search service upon the initiation of the Search command.

Thanks,

Tom
