a4j:support event for selectOneMenu, selectOneListbox etc doesnt work in weblogic

[kalyanl]

Hi Richfaces team,

Im having issue with deploying JSF application built with seam and richfaces on weblogic, the details are as below

I have observed that a4f:support doesnt work in weblogic 10.0 MP1 when used with UISelectOne components, though the same works with tomcat 6, JBoss 5 using seam 2.2.0 and richfaces 3.3.1 GA or 3.3.3 GA. Since weblogic 10.0 MP1 is bundled with older version of JSF 1.2_03, I have deployed latest versions of Mojarra (1.2_12 or 1.2_14) from sun and copied the WeblogicInjectionProvider class from bundler war to new war.

To simulate this, I have changed jpa example from seam 2.2.0 GA as below

• Change booking.xhtml to include a:support at line  85

<s:decorate id="bedsDecorate">
    <h:selectOneMenu id="beds" value="#{booking.beds}">
        <f:selectItem id="OneKingBed" itemLabel="One king-size bed" itemValue="1"/>
        <f:selectItem id="TwoDoubleBeds" itemLabel="Two double beds" itemValue="2"/>
        <f:selectItem id="ThreeBeds" itemLabel="Three beds" itemValue="3"/>
        <a:support id="onchange" event="onchange" reRender="bedsDecorate"/>
    </h:selectOneMenu>
</s:decorate>

• Deploy the jpa example to weblogic and see if onchange event is generated and fired.

What i have observed is

• No Javascript is generated or onchange attribute is rendered for select HTML markup
• If other attributed like disabled etc are added to the componenet, even those attributes are not rendered in markup
• Other UIInput elements generate HTML markup as expected and AjaxSupport events are rendered correctly

Please find the jsf-1.2.12.war (to be deployed as weblogic jsf library) and booking.xhtml attached to simulate this issue

Appreciate if some one from richfaces team can check this out and help me resolve this prickly issue with weblogic.

Thanks
