rich:combobox onchange event never called

[jmchiaradia]

Hello,

I have a rich:combobox with an associated onchange event callback. It works fine if I write into the input, but if I select one item from the suggestion list, the onchange event is never called.

<rich:comboBox id="institution"
     value="#{bean.institution}"
     suggestionValues="#{institutionConverter.findAll()}"
     immediate="true">
     <a:support event="onchange" reRender="institutionContactField" BypassUpdates="false" ajaxSingle="true"/>
</rich:comboBox>>

Could any one help me?

Regards,
Chiara

Just out of curiosity, what makes you so sure the event is not firing?

Can you maybe tell us what's supposed to happen? What are you trying to do?

Maybe give us a bit more of the xhtml. What type of form are you in, etc.

I test this with firefox firebug plugin.(http://www.getfirebug.com/), it has a console wich shows every ajax call.

Event fired steps:

1. focus on the combobox


2. type the value


3. lost focus on the combobox


4. EVENT IS FIRED OK

Event NO fired steps:

1. focus on the combobox


2. type first letters of the value


3. elect the value from the suggestion list


4. lost focus on the combobox


5. EVENT IS NOT FIRED

I need two nested combobox, when I select the value of the first combobox, the second is fill with the velues depending on the firs selection:

Here are two nested combobox:

<h:form id="formId">

<s:decorate id="institutionField" template="layout/edit.xhtml">
    <ui:define name="label">Institution:</ui:define>
    <rich:comboBox
         value="#{bean.institution}"
         suggestionValues="#{institutionConverter.findAll()}"  
         immediate="true">         
         <a:support event="onchange" reRender="contactinstitutionField" bypassUpdates="false" ajaxSingle="true"/>
    </rich:comboBox>
</s:decorate>

<s:decorate id="contactinstitutionField" template="layout/edit.xhtml">
    <ui:define name="label">Sender:</ui:define>
    <rich:comboBox  
         value="#{copiaNotaSalienteHome.instance.destinatario}"
         suggestionValues="#{contactinstitutionConverter.findAll(bean.institution)}"  
         immediate="true"/>
    <a:support event="onblur" reRender="contactinstitutionField" bypassUpdates="true" ajaxSingle="true"/>
</s:decorate>

</h:form>
