3.3.1 GA + MyFaces 1.2.7 - AJAX request not working
Greetings,
Apologies for the bad formatting in previous post, please ignore that one:
Environment details:
Windows XP
JBoss 4.3.0
JDK 6
JSF 1.2
RichFaces 3.3.1 GA
MyFaces 1.2.7
We were using RichFaces 3.1.0 in our application and upgraded to 3.3.1 GA. I am facing a weird issue with AJAX requests not going through when a dropdown's value on the page is changed. I was able to reproduce the issue with the following trimmed down code:
This is a very simple test: The page has a dropdown that fetches values from a method in the backing bean. This dropdown does not trigger any AJAX events on change. There is an AJAX output panel that has an HTML fieldset containing a RichFaces tree. Then there is an AJAX command button, which when clicked, adds the value of the button (which in this case is string 'IF') as a node of the tree, and refreshes the AJAX output panel. The addition of node and tree construction is all fine.

</a4j:commandButton>
</h:form>
</ui:composition>
If I don't select a value in the dropdown, and click the button, the node gets added fine. But if I change the value in the dropdown, the server does not even get the AJAX request. And I do not see any javascript errors in Firefox Error Console. The HTML code that gets generated in JBoss 4.3.0 is as follows:

The same code works in the following environment:
Windows XP
WebSphere 6.0
JDK 5
JSF 1.1
RichFaces 3.1.0
MyFaces 1.1.4
In that environment, the generated HTML code is as follows:

I understand that this might not necessarily be a RichFaces issue, but I would greatly appreciate any feedback.
