[SalesForce] Used html button instead of apex command button,controller action not updating new values?why

Used html button instead of apex command button, but only old values are passing to contrller action method why? Its working fine for commandbutton!!

    <apex:actionFunction name="initiateactionmethod" reRender="basicid" action="{!updatedetails}" status="AjaxLoader" oncomplete="window.location.reload( true );">

        </apex:actionFunction> 

 <input type="button" class="button-a blue"  onclick="initiateMethod();"  value="save"/>

previous command button::

<apex:commandButton value="Save"   styleClass="button-a blue"  action="{!updatedetails}" />

Best Answer

Values from your page are sent to a controller on form submit. You can see this if you view HTML code generated by your visualforce page <apex:commandButton/> will be an input with type="submit".

So try changing the type of your button:

 <input type="submit" class="button-a blue"  onclick="initiateMethod();"  value="save"/>

[SalesForce] Command button and Action Function

It won't work like this and here is why: Your action in the actionFunction returns a pagereference. But you also specify a rerender (Which you need to pass the parameter). This rerender prevents the page from redirecting because it rerenders a non-existing part of the page.

What you can do is not use an actionfunction but change the commandButton to:

<apex:commandButton action="" value="NEXT">
    <apex:param name="p1" assignTo="{!linkclicked}" value="ContactDetailsPage" />
</apex:commandButton>

Just another thought that just popped in my head about your original code you put in your question: You might try to put somewhere in your page:

<apex:outputPanel id="hiddenPannel" style="display:none;" />

And change the rerender="none" to rerender="hiddenPannel"

[SalesForce] Values don’t update after I call action on a commandbutton

The problem is because GetCount is only called when the page loads and never called again when the button is pressed. You could change followingCount to the code below so that the SOQL gets re-queried each time it is used.

public Integer followingCount{
    get {
        List<User> following = [SELECT Id, Name,title, SmallPhotoUrl FROM User WHERE Id =:parentsetid AND Id !=:u.id order by name]; 
        return following.size();
    }
}

Another solution would be to call GetCount at the end of the followOwner action
