Problem with <h:commandButton>

[Aditi Gandy]

Hi all,
I am developing a left Navigation Panel of a website. In that i have inserted a search buttion, but, now i don't want to keep that button, want to remove it.

Problem is:
When i remove search button, my other navigation control buttons are not working.....It is a very strange problem....I don't know how to solve it. I want to remove my search button and also want my other buttons work normally.

Can any one please help me. I am pasting my code for your reference.

Code:

<%@ taglib uri="http://myfaces.apache.org/tomahawk" prefix="t"%>
<%@ taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/jsf/html" prefix="h"%>
<%@ taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/jsf/core" prefix="f"%>

	<t:div id="subnavigation">
	    <h:form>
		    <t:panelNavigation2 id="nav1" layout="list" itemClass="mypage" activeItemClass="selected" 
		    					openItemClass="selected">
				
				<t:commandNavigation2 action="AdminControl">	
					<h:outputText value="Admin Control Screen" 
								  style="color:black;font-size:14px;font-family:verdana;"/>
				</t:commandNavigation2>
				
				<t:commandNavigation2 action="#{another webpage address......}">
					<h:outputText  value="application Form" 
								  style="color:black;font-size:14px;font-family:verdana;"/>
				</t:commandNavigation2>
				
				<t:commandNavigation2 action="#{another webpage address.......}">	
					<h:outputText value="View status of your Application" 
								  style="color:black;font-size:14px;font-family:verdana;"/>
				</t:commandNavigation2>
				
			</t:panelNavigation2>
			<h:commandButton value="Search" />	
	    </h:form>
    </t:div>

How is the form submitted without the submit button?

how do you want remove the button?
add "rendered" attribute for <h:commandButton/> and control it with boolean value by a method in managed bean
example

...
<h:commandButton rendered="#{Class.show}" value="Search"/>
...

in Class managed bean add a method for controlling visibility of the button

...
public boolean getShow(){
//...for example
return (this.att="Okay")?true:false;
}
...

Hi ArAsh Dex ,

Thanks for your reply.
I have tried hardcoding rendered="false" for the button. After doing so, button did not display on the browser but, my other buttons for other pages are not working again......same problem.

I thought of implementing your bean code. I am confussed and not able to understand what is the meaning of
-->this.att="Okay".....Okay stands for what??

Can you please help me.... :(
