[richfaces-issues] [JBoss JIRA] Commented: (RF-1099) In case of AJAX calls it is calling the methods which it should not be calling

[ http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/RF-1099?page=comments#action_12386198 ] Andreas Dangel commented on RF-1099: ------------------------------------ Hello Anton, Amit has left the project, so I want to proceed with this open problem. The problem that we encounter is the following: In the Bean above the downloadExcelFile() action method (with the FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().responseComplete(); statement) is called again in the next ajax action AFTER a user has clicked on the link to download the excel file (this works fine) It looks like this event is "remembered" and the next time the user for example selects any selectbox with ajax requests this method downloadExcelFile is called again (and has the effect, because of the responseComplete-stament, that the result for the user is a "blanc" screen...) The very interesting is that when I click on a component that is in the source xhtml file after the download link, then the downloadExcelFile method is called BEFORE the really wanted action method.... Somehow this event is "saved" and during the next Ajax request performed (here wlways 2 action method are called - the right one and the unwanted "download" event that was performed before). This behaviour has to do with the responseComplete() method. Somewhere the event for clicking on the link is passed in the following ajax call. A "normal" (no a4j-action) jsf action afterwords works fine... If you want I can provide debugging informations for this behaviour.
