    selectOneMenu reRender not working with a4j:support

    del

      I can't seem to get the reRender of a selectOneMenu working read a bunch of post and seems like I am still missing something.  I want based on the office selected from a selectOneMenu to populate a list of people in that office in a pickList.  Can someone point me in the right direction please?  I also added a test tag (testID) which doesn't rerender either.



      Using: Seam 2.2
      Jboss: 5

      Add office page



      <h:form>
            <s:validateAll>
      
              
                    <h:selectOneMenu id="officeCombo" value="#{sessionData.office}" converter="#{officeConverter}">
                                 <a4j:support event="onchange" reRender="testID, peopleList" ajaxSingle="true"/>
                                 <s:selectItems var="office" value="#{sessionData.offices}" label="#{office.officeNumber}" noSelectionLabel="Select office"/>
                        </h:selectOneMenu>        <br/>
                        
                        <h:outputText id="testID" value="#{sessionData.office.officeNumber}"/> <br/>
                        
                        <rich:pickList id="peopleList" value="#{peopleHandler.presentation.people}" 
                                             copyAllControlLabel="Select All" copyControlLabel="Select">
                                              <f:selectItems value="#{sessionData.peopleSelectItems}" />
                                              <s:convertEntity/>
