Scott0987 Show input field in a panelbaritem.
I want to make a set of searches on a visualforce page that list the search boxes when the user clicks on the panelbar for the item they want to search for. So I would have 3 or 4 panelbaritems and when the user clicked on the one they wanted they would be shown the search boxes for the fields that they can search. Here is what I have written:
<apex:panelBar >
<apex:panelBarItem label="Lead Search">
<apex:form >
<apex:inputField value="{!lead.name}" label="Name" rendered="true" />
</apex:form>
</apex:panelBarItem>
</apex:panelBar>
the panelbar displays correctly, but it will not show the inputfield on it. Thanks for your help.
I figured out what I was doing wrong. You have to use inputtext not inputfield

you will have to use the 'rerender' attribute for that to happen. so wherever the change happens and you want field to show, on that action event, say rerender='the parent component id'
Let me know if that helps.

I don't think there is a rerender attribute for either the input field or the panelbaritem field. I am also not sure exactly how I would use it. I want the field to show up the minute the panelbar is opened. Can you explain how to use it? Thanks for the help.
