PrimeFaces 3.5 Editor无法清除文本

Question

I'm using JSF 2, Glassfish 3.1, PrimeFaces 3.5. I copied demo from homepage which using PF 4.0. I remove PF function to work my PF version.

Here my code:

   <h:form id="form">

        <p:editor id="editor" value="#{editorBean.value}" width="600"/>

        <h:panelGrid columns="2" style="margin-top:10px">
            <p:commandButton id="submitButton" value="Submit" update="display" oncomplete="dlg.show()"
                             icon="ui-icon-disk" />
            <p:commandButton id="clearButton" type="button" value="Clear" onclick="editor.clear()"
                             icon="ui-icon-close" />
        </h:panelGrid>

        <p:dialog header="Content" widgetVar="dlg" showEffect="fade" hideEffect="fade" modal="true">
            <h:outputText id="display" value="#{editorBean.value}" escape="false" />
        </p:dialog>

    </h:form>

Submit button works well, but I can't clear editor text with Clear button. Does PF 3.5 support clear method? Hope anyone suggest me.

Answer 1

You have not specified the widgetVar attribute. Because it picks up the widgetVar value for clearing the editor section, not the id in your case.

It should be.

<p:editor id="editor" value="#{editorBean.value}" widgetVar="editor" width="600" />
