facesMessages.addToControl and h:message not working with aj

[waynebagguley]

I've got a page with this piece of xhtml in:

<f:subview>
 <h:panelGroup id="findJobPanel">
 <a4j:include viewId="/findJob/search.xhtml"/>
 </h:panelGroup>
</f:subview>

In the pages that are used by the a4j control, I have a h:form with a h:inputText and corresponding h:message

The h:message only displays if the error is the result of the automatic validation. If I programatically set the error message it doesn't show up.

Any ideas?

Fixed my own problem. I should return null from the action method when I want to stay on the same page. Oops!
