I have h:commandLink with target="_blank" and a4j:support in it to reRender section of page - but it doesn't work.
the page opened in new window displays results as expected.
<h:form id="paymentReminderLetter" styleClass="edit">
...
<h:commandLink value="Generate Letter" action="#{paymentReminderLetter.generateLetter}"
target="_blank" type="submit" onclick="return validateForm(document.paymentReminderLetter);">
<a4j:support event="onclick" reRender="paymentReminderSearchResultMessage"/>
</h:commandLink>
...
</h:form>
<a4j:outputPanel id="paymentReminderSearchResultMessage">
<h:outputText rendered="#{(paymentReminderLetter.executeSearch) and (empty paymentReminderLetter.paymentReminderLetterList)}">
No declard but unpaid applicants exist within specified criteria.
<p/>
</h:outputText>
</a4j:outputPanel>
