Java Development Tools

Hi,

I created a table with a number of rows, containing a objectid and other stuff.
When I select 1 or more rows and click a button,
my application is doing his thing,
and finally I got a message that all went fine.

When I select another tab in that same page,
I want to display the previously selected object id's.

I created a getter and setter in my backingbean for these id's.
When I print them on the first tab, they are available,
but when I click the other tab, they dissapear....

Anyone who can help me how to do this ?

So I need to set a String in 1 tab, and display it after I changed to another tab.

Thanks.
