a4j:jsFunction JavaScript error in IE6/7/8
------------------------------------------

                 Key: RF-7489
                 URL: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/RF-7489
             Project: RichFaces
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: browser compatibility
    Affects Versions: 3.3.1
         Environment: IE 6/7/8
            Reporter: Josh Long


three instances of a4j:jsFunction seem to be causing a javascript error in IE6 / 7 / 8  I'm running a Seam application using RichFaces. The page itself is pretty tame, and its producing an error in IE6/7/8. the error is very strange: 


Quote:
Message: Expected ')'
Line: 1
Char: 189
Code: 0
URI: http://blach/blah//blah.html?cid=1023


the javascript it's pointing to is generated by a4j:jsFunction. there are only 3 instances, which i reproduce here
Code:


<a4j:jsFunction name="reRenderFiles"
		reRender="filesList,newFilesList,#{reRenderOnSelect}"
		ajaxSingle="true" eventsQueue="queue" />

	<a4j:jsFunction name="handleUploadCompletion" rendered="#{selectable}"
			reRender="filesList,newFilesList,#{reRenderOnSelect}"
			ajaxSingle="true" eventsQueue="queue"
			oncomplete="handleUploadComplete()" />
										
	<a4j:jsFunction name="handleUploadCompletion" rendered="#{not selectable}"
			reRender="filesList,newFilesList"
			ajaxSingle="true" eventsQueue="queue"
		oncomplete="unlockScreen()" />	



the only way to get the error to go away (and in so doing break the functionality) is to remove one of the a4j:jsFunction components.

for example, if I remove:
Code:

<a4j:jsFunction name="reRenderFiles"
reRender="filesList,newFilesList,#{reRenderOnSelect}"
ajaxSingle="true" eventsQueue="queue" /> 
	


it works, though it doesnt seem to matter which I remove, so long as I do. I wondered if this strangeness might be due to cached versions of my class files in Eclipse or tomcat, but nothing seem to fix it except removing a a4j:jsFunction component.

Any ideas? Any way of controlling the output of the JS so that it produces super clean, non IE-offensive code? Naturally, it works perfectly in Safari/Chrome/Firefox.

Thanks
