h:commandButton not working on RichFaces Tab

[damatrix]

I'm using richfaces 3.1.1.SNAPSHOT I which was from Seam 2.0CR1.

I've realised that all h:commandButtons and h:commandLinks rendered in a tab do not perform the actions associated with them when called, but rather just refresh the page. I've reported this on the Seam forum and this place looks like the right place to mention it.

For the purposes of simplicity, i repeat a section of the facelet here

<rich:tabPanel id="servicesTabPanel" selectedTab="#{navigation.servTab}">
 <rich:tab name="fairs" id="fairs" label="Fairs" >
 <h:form>
 <br/>
 <h:messages globalOnly="true"/>
 <h:outputText value="No fairs to display" rendered="#{fairs.rowCount==0}"/>
 <fieldset>
 <h:commandLink value="New fair" action="#{fairManager.createObject}"/>
 </fieldset>
...
</h:form>
</rich:tab>
</rich:tabPanel>

I thought that moving to RichFaces 3.1.2.GA will solve the problem but things haven't changed.

What is preventing my action from being called?

Try <a4j:commandButton> and <a4j:commandLink>.

Are you sure about h:commandButton ?

I have answered on the Seam forum. Please, in order to avoid cross-forum posts, ask your question here if it is only about richfaces issue.
