Michael B commented on RF-13595:
--------------------------------

Thanks for verifying the problem, - glad to hear that the test project was useful!

And to answer your question: yes, that's exactly what I meant by replacing the inputText with the calendar component. I've also tried with some (of the many) other events which the calendar component provides, but with no success so far.

Also I would imagine, that the same problem could also occur when using other input components with the validator (like rich:select etc.), but I haven't confirmed that by changing the test case so far.

So basically having a workaround for the calendar component would by nice on the short run, but the general problem would still remain.

BTW: the instanceof-check in the validation-method (Line 25) of your adapted test class should probably also be changed to a Date, otherwise the check would never work - even if the validation method would actually be invoked at some point... - but never mind that detail.

> When loading input components with a rich:validator via ajax (re-render), client side validation bridge breaks due to a 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) being added on the client side when a component becomes visible on ajax response re-rendering.
> Please use attached eclipse project to easily reproduce the problem => open Firefox => Firebug console to see the error about the missing JS function av_xxxxxxx ...
