If you are expecting something like : action="#{backingbean.myMethod(arg1)}" ... then unfortunately you can't.

What are you trying to do?

Yeah, I really don't understand either. Could you try and explain again what you are trying to do? To me your 2 posts look like 2 seperate questions.

Hi

I hope this will make my question clear

How does one pass arguments or set some data mangaedbean for furthur porocessing on the fly .

I am building a table of assignments and they are group by catergory. Si O have a list of catergory and can get assignment by catergory.

As a workaround I am how I can call the set api in a mangedbean without a submit or refresh .

Also it would be helpful to understand how to encode URL for a commandLink.

Thanks
