Woodstock components support Ajax. Did you look at the the woodstock
documents
Can someone point me in the right direction to allow me to NOT re-render a
page when I click a button
All I want to do is
1. Onclick, fire off an event to the backing bean to start something .
2. popup a div showing a progress bar widget.
3. let the popup div have a STOP button that will send a stop to the back
end using ajax.
I dont want an page re-rendering and I know I can do this simply in the non
woodstock world.
However, surely there must be a method of doing this within woodstock button
widgets .
I succesfully use the update() on other areas of my apps to dynamically
change things on the display
and guessed that woodstock must have a layer that I can access to invoke a
method on the backing bean.
