Passing request parameters with rich:menuItem impossible?

[piotr.sobczyk]

I am using RichFaces with Seam framework and have a simple menu:

<h:form>
        <rich:dropDownMenu value="Klienci" rendered="#{identity.hasRole('seller')}">
            <rich:menuItem action="/pages/seller/ClientList.xhtml">
                Lista
                <f:param name="asRole" value="seller"/>
                <f:param name="conversationPropagation" value="none"/>
            </rich:menuItem>

            ...

     </rich:dropDownMenu>

</h:form>

I would just want "asRole" parameter to be passed when user clicks menuItem. However this parameter isn't passed when I test my application (no parameter appended to URL). Is it possible to pass request parameters that way using rich:menuItem component?

Thanks for reply, Ilya. I was using version 3.3.1 GA. Unfortuanately after switching to 3.3.3 beta the parameter is still not passed .

Anyone else tried to pass request parameters through menuItem?

sorry to revive this old topic. I'm struggling with this issue. Can't pass parameters. I'm using richfaces 3.3.3 + seam.

<rich:menuItem

        action="/LinkToUrl.xhtml" submitMode="server"

        value="some link">

        <f:param name="stringvalue" value="va"/>

        <s:conversationPropagation type="none" />

</rich:menuItem>

It doesn't work.

EDIT: nevermind. It was MY fault. works like a charm with:

<a4j:actionparam name="stringValue" value="va" assignTo="#{backingBean.paramValue}" />
