Brian Leathem commented on RF-12012:
------------------------------------

Philip - thanks for taking the time to file an issue.

To me this seems like a duplicate of RF-11973, with the same workaround.  Can you point out anything that makes this a distinct issue?  If not, I will close this issue as a duplicate, and address the problem when we address RF-11973.

> I have a extendedDataTable with a contextMenu attached to it.
> When the selection changes on the extendedDataTable, a a4j:jsFunction is called. This jsFunction renders the contextMenu.
> {quote}
> <rich:extendedDataTable id="dtLivingCosts"
> 			onselectionchange="selChange('dtLivingCosts')" 
> ...
> </rich:extendedDataTable>
> ...
> <a4j:jsFunction name="selChange" execute="@form"
> 	action="#{fhIndBean.selectionListener()}"
> 	status="none" render="dtLivingCosts, contextMenu_dtLivingCosts">
> <a4j:param name="comp" assignTo="#{fhIndBean.tableId}" />
> </a4j:jsFunction>
> ...
> <rich:contextMenu id="contextMenu_dtLivingCosts" target="dtLivingCosts"
> 		attached="true" mode="ajax" >
> ...
> </rich:contextMenu>
> {quote}
> The problem is that as soon as I right-click, the contextMenu appears, the ajax request is sent and received, the view is partially updated (dtLivingCosts, contextMenu_dtLivingCosts) and then the contextMenu disappears and won't appear anymore.
> I noticed that the javascript code generated by RichFaces for the contextMenu is not rerendered as you can see on these two screenshots. The first one shows the code when the page is generated for the first time. The second one, when a right-click has been done on a row in the extendedDataTable:

> A possible workaround is to refresh only menuItems of the contextMenu (https://issues.jboss.org/browse/RF-11973).
