rich:validator doesn't work when loaded via ajax (re-render) ------------------------------------------------------------ Key: RF-13595 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/RF-13595 Project: RichFaces Issue Type: Bug Security Level: Public(Everyone can see) Components: component-validators Affects Versions: 4.3.5 Environment: RF 4.3.5 Mojarra 2.1.27 Java 7 Update 51 x64 Tomcat 7.0.52 Firefox 28.0 + Firebug Reporter: Michael B Assignee: Matej Novotny Attachments: validationTest.zip When loading input components with a rich:validator via ajax (re-render), client side validation bridge breaks due to a missing JS function av_xxxxxxxxx.

Please note that this is a minimum example only. The problem is also reproducable for other input components besides h:inputText - like for example rich:calendar. The workaround described in the referenced JIRA creates other problems in client JS when combined with other components like rich:focus and is also not applicable for other input components besides h:inputText. We think the problem is located in the way JS functions are optimized for being re-used as well as in the way they are (not) being added on the client side when a component becomes visible on ajax response re-rendering. Please use attached eclipse project to easily reproduce the problem => open Firefox => Firebug console to see the error about the missing JS function av_xxxxxxx ...
