> Right now, RichFaces will not work with the latest version of Neko,. which is 1.9.13.  I believe that this is because Neko has deprecated/removed some of its API.   
> The API's were deprecated for a long time before they were removed.  So, when this is fixed, RichFaces should work with many previous versions of Neko.
> I talked to Alex about this and here is his response:
> That is mix of problems. RichFaces has pluggable set of filters that converts JSF Html response to well-formed XML that could be parsed by JavaScript XMLHttpRequest. One of these filters is based on Neko html
> and that is default RichFaces demo configuration. These test errors seem like API change between versions that blocks AJAX response processing. I did not pay attention to that because we had had no problems with Neko libraries before. It would take a while to figure out Neko API changes and fix that issue, so I suggest two workarounds:
> 1) Switch back to earlier HtmlUnit version.
> 2) Change init parameter in application web.xml from:
>         <context-param>
>                 <param-name>org.ajax4jsf.xmlparser.ORDER</param-name>
>                 <param-value>NEKO, TIDY</param-value>
>         </context-param>
> to:
>         <context-param>
>                 <param-name>org.ajax4jsf.xmlparser.ORDER</param-name>
>                 <param-value>TIDY</param-value>
>         </context-param>
> that disables Neko parser.
