How to render dynamic javascript in tabPanel?

[r4nd7263]

My page has a tabPanel and the content of the first tab is going to be HTML code entered by User.  So I use a outputText with escape=false to print HTML code loaded in the backing bean.  The problem I am having is that if the HTML code contains <script> tag, then tabPanel fails to render the scripts.  See example below.

<rich:tabPanel switchType="ajax">
                              <rich:tab label="First">
                                   <t:outputText value="<script src='http://www.gmodules.com/ig/ifr?url=http://bejeweledg.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/bejeweled.xml&amp;synd=open&amp;w=320&amp;h=270&amp;title=Bejeweled&amp;border=%23ffffff%7C3px%2C1px+solid+%23999999&amp;output=js'></script>" escape="false"></t:outputText>
                              </rich:tab>
                              <rich:tab label="Second">
                                   <t:outputText value="Here is tab #1"></t:outputText>
                              </rich:tab>                              
                         </rich:tabPanel>

In this example, First tab renders a Bejeweled Google Gadget.  When I first come to the page, the gadget is rendered correctly because First tab is already selected, but after clicking Second tab and back to First tab, the gadget is now missing.  I take it has something to do with region updated by Ajax, but I am not sure what to do.  Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks.

It works (as expected) if swithcType="Client", but client mode is undesirable for performance reasons.

Still looking for help.  Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.

Hi,

This seems to be a problem of the widget itself.

Poblem is not related to tabpanel. I've tested to place mentioned JS String outside from tabpanel in <h:panelGroup/> which is rendering if the first tab is selected. After testing I got the same behavior. Unfortunately no idea about possible solution.

Nick is right.  I should have tried with a simpler script.  I am not sure how Google Web Gadget hooks itself.  On Firefox, reloading the widget via AJAX actually cause the whole page to disappear.

Looks like my solution is to redesign my page in order to cope with script incompability with ajax rerendering.
