Hi
I'm trying to follow the livedemo example to make an ajax validation inputText:
<h:inputText id="age" value="#{myBean.age}">
<f:validateLongRange minimum="18" maximum="99"/>
<rich:ajaxValidator event="onblur"/>
</h:inputText>
I insert "999" in the text field, press the mouse away to remove focus and expect to see a validation error, but nothing happens.
Substituting the ajaxValidator tag with
<a4j:support ajaxSingle="true" event="onblur" reRender="it" bypassUpdates="true"/>
also does nothing.
I also tried addying a ajaxListener property to the ajaxValidator and it correctly calls the bean method, from there I tried to do
FacesContext context = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance();
HtmlInputText htmlInputText = (HtmlInputText) ((HtmlAjaxValidator) e.getSource()).getParent();
htmlInputText.validate(context);
boolean valid = htmlInputText.isValid();
valid contains the correct value but I don't know what to do to make the error message appear (throwing a ValidatorException did nothing) and I expected to make the error message appear without touching the backing bean anyway.
Any idea what could be the cause?
Thanks
