         Environment: RF 4.3.5

When loading input components with a rich:validator via ajax (re-render), client side validation bridge breaks due to missing JS function av_xxxxxxxxx.

As already described in further detail in a comment to this JIRA here:
https://issues.jboss.org/browse/RF-12031

I've created a very basic example project to reproduce the problem for a single input field which becomes visible (re-rendered) when you click on an a4j:commandButton.

Please note that this is a minimum example only. The problem is also reproducable for other input components besides h:inputText like for example rich:calendar. 

The workaround described in the referenced JIRA creates other problems in client JS when combined with other components like rich:focus and is also not applicable for other input components besides h:inputText.

We think the problem is located in the way JS functions are optimized for being re-used as well as in the way they are (not) added on the client side when a component becomes visible on ajax response re-rendering.
