New to richfaces problem with a4j:support on a graphic image

[mcarrieruri]

Hi all,

I am new to rich faces and a4j and am having a problem trying to link a graphic image with a4j support. I am currently using rich faces 3.3.0.GA with facelets and myfaces on tomcat 6. I am trying to call a method in my backing bean after an onclick event. No stack trace is thrown on tomcat and IE shows a javascript error (Object Required) in ajaxscript.faces, firefox shows no such error. any help would be greatly appreciated.

Here is my xhtml code

<ui:composition id="c"
xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"
xmlns:ui="http://java.sun.com/jsf/facelets"
xmlns:h="http://java.sun.com/jsf/html"
xmlns:f="http://java.sun.com/jsf/core"
xmlns:a4j="http://richfaces.org/a4j"
xmlns:rich="http://richfaces.org/rich">
<f:view id="jacksOrBetterView">
<h:outputText id="imageOneHold" rendered="#{jacksOrBetterBean.isCardOneHeld}" style="background: red" value="HELD"/>
<h:graphicImage id="cardOne" value="#{jacksOrBetterBean.cardOneImagePath}">
<a4j:support
event="onclick"
actionListener="#{jacksOrBetterBean.cardOneHeldAction}"
reRender="cardOne"
limitToList="true"/>
</h:graphicImage>
</f:view>
</ui:composition>

here is my faces-config.xml

<faces-config xmlns="http://java.sun.com/JSF/Configuration">

<view-handler>
com.sun.facelets.FaceletViewHandler
</view-handler>


<managed-bean>
<managed-bean-name>jacksOrBetterBean</managed-bean-name>
<managed-bean-class>com.cskids.virtualcasino.ui.beans.JacksOrBetterBean</managed-bean-class>
<managed-bean-scope>session</managed-bean-scope>
</managed-bean>
</faces-config>

1) you page has not html/body elements.
2) do not forget about form element

checked within RF-demo environment and works.

That's because of form lack.
