Including EL in ID for Components Yields "Empty id attribute is not allowed" Exception -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: JBSEAM-4641 URL: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBSEAM-4641 Project: Seam Issue Type: Bug Components: EL, JSF Integration Affects Versions: 2.2.1.CR1 Environment: Linux Server Side, Windows + IE 8 Client Side Reporter: Steve Wells When specifying an ID for a control (seems to affect all / near all) using an EL expression, it doesn't matter what the EL expression method returns, the following exception is generated. EXAMPLE <h:outputLink value="http://www.jboss.org" id="#{x.id}">LINK</h:outputLink> <!-- the x.id() method returns "123", etc. --> <h:outputLink value="http://www.jboss.org" id="XXXX#{x.id}">LINK</h:outputLink> <!-- the XXXX prefix doesn't even get it to pass --> SEVERE [facelets.viewhandler] Error Rendering View[/test.xhtml] java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Empty id
