a) If i were to use the forms as in clause A) (bolded), the results is shown in attachment result1.doc
b) If i were to comment the forms as in clause A) and uncomment the <ui:insert name="contents"/>, the results is shown in attachment result2.doc. This is really strange where the panel get rendered correctly while the tabPanel otherwise. Possible bug in richfaces4.0?
I couldn't figure out why using the latter would cause the tabpanel not rendering properly.
