Autocomplete component re-renders panels with ajaxRendered=true at each character being typed in into the autocomplete box -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: RF-12158 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/RF-12158 Project: RichFaces Issue Type: Bug Security Level: Public(Everyone can see) Components: component-input Affects Versions: 4.2.0.Final Environment: Windows 7, Chrome/IE/FF, Java 1.6, Tomcat 7, Spring 3.1 Reporter: Cristian Cerb Fix For: 5-Tracking See this sample: https://gist.github.com/2353552 And this forum entry: https://community.jboss.org/message/729173?tstart=0 I tried to remove this: onkeypress="return submitOnEnter(event, '#{rich:clientId('qsPayorSupcdCmdBtnId')}')" and it worked fine. This JS piece of code produces a programatic button click when Enter is pressed inside autocomplete box.
