[jboss-user] [JBoss jBPM] - Referencing JSF components from Javascript in JPDL forms

Hi, I have modified a xhtml task form generated by the Graphical designer plugin in order to add a combobox component: | <h:selectOneMenu onchange="updateTopic(this);" id="topicCombo" value="#{ChooseTopicBean.value}" styleClass="combobox"> | value="#{ChooseTopicBean.items}"/> | </h:selectOneMenu> | </jbpm:datacell> | and defined apart a JS function called "updateTopic(ref)" which try to change the value of another jsf component when select any of the combobox's options, that is: | <h:inputText id="inputTopic" value="#{var['topic']}" /> | I don't know how to reference the inputText from my JavaScript function since I've seen from the generated HTML page parsed by the browser that the components/forms IDs are generated dynamically: | <input id="j_id197:inputTopic" type="text" name="j_id197:inputTopic" /> | So, I'll get an error if I try to reference as "document.getComponentById('inputTopic')". Where is the "j_id197" id name coming from? Is there any other way to reference jsf components from Javascript? Thanks in advance. Cheers.
