Validation gets activated in JSF application for inactive tabs upon submitting the active tab

Troubleshooting


Problem

This document discusses the issue where, in a JSF tabbed panel validation gets activated for other tabs that are not active while submitting the active tab.

Symptom

Upon submitting the active tab, validation errors belonging to the inactive tabs are thrown.

For example, in a JSF application with a .jsp page where it includes multiple tabs (i.e. tab 1, tab 2, and tab 3) and each tab with some input fields with "value is required" enabled, if tab 1 is filled out with the required data and submitted, validations belong to tab 2 and tab 3 are activated resulting in validation errors for those tabs (i.e. tab 2 and tab 3). This should not happen since these tabs should be treated as independent entities so submitting an active tab should not trigger validations for other inactive tabs.
