calling javascript-function with a4j:support?

[schlumsch]

Hello,

I have a inputText-Element within my jsf-page. Now, when user has entered a new value a javascript-method has to be called. Is this possible?

<script type="text/javascript">
 //<![CDATA[
 function alertme() {
 alert('me');
 }
 //]]>
</script>

 <h:inputText required="true" id="tourStopStartAddress" value="#{e2e.tour.startAddress}" size="50" styleClass="portlet-form-input-field" requiredMessage="#{res.CAPTURE_NEEDSTART}" immediate="true" valueChangeListener="#{e2e.tour.changeStartAddress}">
<a4j:support event="onchange" action="alertme()" reRender="tourGrid,zusammenfassung,zusammenfassungStartAddress" />
 </h:inputText><br/>

may be just:

<h:inputText onchange="alertme();" />

Hello,

Use onsubmit attribute of a4j:support.

Well, thanx a lot, works fine. But now another problem occurs, maybe u can also help me with this. The method im calling when user changes the input is placing markers on a googlemap-component. The problem is now, that event onchange occurs earlier than my valuechangelistener. So when the user has entered a new value and leaves the inputelement, all data for displaying markers are empty.

I have also put a simple link on my page for testing. If i change the value of inputtext and activate this link, my map works fine...

okok, use oncomplete to solve this is the answer :)

So, excuse me but there is another question. The same javascrip should now be called after action-method of a commandbutton has finished. Can u tell me how 2 do this?

[CODE]
<a4j:commandButton style="width:170px;" align="right" value="#res.MODALPANELSTARTADDRESSBUTTONNEWADDRESS}"
action="#{e2e.tour.takeStartAddressFromModalPanel}" onclick="#{rich:component('startModalPanel')}.hide(), showPlace()" reRender="startAddressPanelGroup, zusammenfassungStartAddress">

<a4j:actionparam name="hasCanceledStartAddressAlternative" value="true"
assignTo="#{e2e.tour.hasCanceledStartAddressAlternative}" />
<!-- <a4j:support event="onclick" oncomplete="showPlace()" reRender="tourGrid,zusammenfassung,zusammenfassungStartAddress" />-->
</a4j:commandButton>
