Hi All, I don't know what I'm doing wrong.I'm using icefaces and have basic controller:

public class TestingController {

private String name;

public String submit() {
setName("newName");
return null;
}
public void setName(String name) { this.name = name;}
public String getName() { return name; }
}

--------and view:
<ice:inputText id="inp" value="#{testController.name}" /> <br> <ice:commandButton id="submit" value="SUBMIT" action="#{testController.submit}" />

When I submit the form after first displaying the page..the input is set to newName, next I clear the inputText to "". and submit again but the name is not set to newName again as I would expect but it's empty.

thank you in advance for you help.
