enter image description hereI am trying to create a VF page with standard controller where first I will choose a value from picklist between 1 to 10 and based on that fields form my object will be displayed. The problem is I dont want to have two save buttons (one for number and one for the fields) can I rerender the fields section onchange of my picklist.

<apex:page standardController="RFP_Template__c" >
<apex:form >
    <apex:pageBlock >
    <apex:pageBlockSection id="numberofattachments">
        <apex:inputField value="{!RFP_Template__c.Number_Of_Attachments__c}" id="attachments" onchange="noofattachments(this.value);"/><br/>                       
        <apex:commandButton value="Save" reRender="AttachmentNames" action="{!save}"/>
        <apex:commandButton value="Cancel" action="{!cancel}"/>   
    </apex:pageBlockSection>
    <apex:pageBlockSection id="AttachmentNames">       
        <apex:inputField value="{!RFP_Template__c.Attachment_1_Name__c}" rendered="{!IF(VALUE(RFP_Template__c.Number_Of_Attachments__c) >= 1 , TRUE , FALSE)}"/> <br/>
        <apex:inputField value="{!RFP_Template__c.Attachment_1__c}" rendered="{!IF(VALUE(RFP_Template__c.Number_Of_Attachments__c) >= 1 , TRUE , FALSE)}"/> <br/>
        <apex:inputField value="{!RFP_Template__c.Attachment_2_Name__c}" rendered="{!IF(VALUE(RFP_Template__c.Number_Of_Attachments__c) >= 2 , TRUE , FALSE)}"/> <br/>
        <apex:inputField value="{!RFP_Template__c.Attachment_2__c}" rendered="{!IF(VALUE(RFP_Template__c.Number_Of_Attachments__c) >= 2 , TRUE , FALSE)}"/> <br/>           
        <apex:commandlink value="Save" action="{!save}" target="_parent" />                       
    </apex:pageBlockSection>
    </apex:pageBlock>    
</apex:form>

You should use OutputPanel and actionFunction to achieve this task. Refer below code:

<apex:page standardController="RFP_Template__c" >
<apex:form >
    <apex:pageBlock >
    <apex:actionFunction name="noofattachments" reRender="panel"/>
    <apex:pageBlockSection id="numberofattachments">
        <apex:inputField value="{!RFP_Template__c.Number_Of_Attachments__c}" id="attachments" onchange="noofattachments(this.value);"/><br/>                       

    </apex:pageBlockSection>
    <apex:outputPanel id="panel">
    <apex:pageBlockSection id="AttachmentNames">       
        <apex:inputField value="{!RFP_Template__c.Attachment_1_Name__c}" rendered="{!IF(VALUE(RFP_Template__c.Number_Of_Attachments__c) >= 1 , TRUE , FALSE)}"/> <br/>
        <apex:inputField value="{!RFP_Template__c.Attachment_1__c}" rendered="{!IF(VALUE(RFP_Template__c.Number_Of_Attachments__c) >= 1 , TRUE , FALSE)}"/> <br/>
        <apex:inputField value="{!RFP_Template__c.Attachment_2_Name__c}" rendered="{!IF(VALUE(RFP_Template__c.Number_Of_Attachments__c) >= 2 , TRUE , FALSE)}"/> <br/>
        <apex:inputField value="{!RFP_Template__c.Attachment_2__c}" rendered="{!IF(VALUE(RFP_Template__c.Number_Of_Attachments__c) >= 2 , TRUE , FALSE)}"/> <br/>           
        <apex:commandlink value="Save" action="{!save}" target="_parent" />                       
    </apex:pageBlockSection>
    </apex:outputPanel>
    </apex:pageBlock>    
</apex:form>

  • there are two issues i am encountering 1. the width of page inline shows hundred precent but is covering only half of the page 2. the labels of my input fields are not showing. I even used label tag. (P.s. I have used PanelGroups for inputfields )
