RichFaces 4.1 - IE9 re render failure

[johnaja]

I am running an application using RichFaces 4.1.0, mojarra 2.0.2 and apache tomcat 6.0.32.

My app runs well in all the different browsers except IE9.

It stops working in IE 9 and does not generate any javascript error or tomcat logs.

It fails whenever an a4j re-render operation happens.

I cannot use due to design constraints the meta tag to set the IE9 in compatiblity mode.

Below is my code and web.xml:

{code:xml}<h:body>
    <h:form>
        <rich:tabPanel switchType="client">
            <rich:tab header="Overview">
                <span>Total Number of Applications</span>
            </rich:tab>
            <rich:tab header="Options" onheaderclick="refreshOptions();" >
                <h:outputText value="Logging Level:" />
                <rich:select id="optionsLogLevel"
                             value="#{optionsBean.logLevel}"
                             required="true"
                             requiredMessage="Logging Level is required">
                    <f:selectItems value="#{optionsBean.logLevelsList}" />
                </rich:select>
            </rich:tab>
        </rich:tabPanel>
        <a4j:jsFunction name="refreshOptions"
                    action="#{optionsBean.refreshOptions}"
                    render="optionsLogLevel" execute="@this" />
    </h:form>
</h:body>{code}

Hi John,

it seems that bug was already fixed in Mojarra 2.1.7 [1],

if you are using lower version, you can provide your own patched jsf.js (using the patch in [1]).

You can use resource mapping to point to your patched version [2]

[1] http://java.net/jira/browse/JAVASERVERFACES-2063

[2] http://docs.jboss.org/richfaces/latest_4_X/Developer_Guide/en-US/html/chap-Developer_Guide-Advanced_features.html#sect-Developer_Guide-Advanced_features-Resource_mapping

Thanks a lot Lukas! I got the jsf.js file from [1] and added it to the jsf-impl-2.0.2 jar file I am using and it works now!

However, I would like to use mojarra 2.1.7 but I am getting an error when I am using it.

My code seems only to work with mojarra 2.0.2.

I am using a rich tab panel and it seems to be causing an error.

Below is my code and the error being generated when I use mojarra 2.1.7 or any other 2.1 mojarra versions:

Code:

{code:xml}<rich:tabPanel switchType="client" >
                <rich:tab header="Overview">
                    <rich:collapsiblePanel header="Overview" switchType="client" styleClass="overview-collapsible-panel">
                        <div class="overview-label-wrapper">
                            <span class="overview-label">Total Number of Applications:</span> 5
                        </div>
                    </rich:collapsiblePanel>
                    <rich:collapsiblePanel header="Licensing" switchType="client" styleClass="overview-collapsible-panel">
                        <div  class="overview-label-wrapper">
                            <span class="overview-label">Total Number of Licenses Available:</span> 10
                        </div>
                    </rich:collapsiblePanel>
                </rich:tab>
                <rich:tab header="Options"> 
                    <rich:collapsiblePanel header="General Options" switchType="client" 
                               styleClass="overview-collapsible-panel">
                            <div class="options-input">
                                <rich:select value="0">
                                    <f:selectItem itemValue="0" itemLabel="Trace"/>
                                    <f:selectItem itemValue="1" itemLabel="Info" />
                                </rich:select>
                            </div>
                    </rich:collapsiblePanel>
                </rich:tab>
            </rich:tabPanel>{code}

This error happens after I send another request.

So the first time let's say I open it in firefox it is fine then I open it in another tab or I open in IE I basically send another request and I see the error being displayed.

If I don't use the rich tabpanel component I don't get the error and everything is ok.

Also, if I use mojarra 2.0.2 everything is ok.

I see this problem when I use the rich tabpanel and any mojarra 2.1 versions.

Please I need a help... I just Migrate from JSF 1.2 to JSF 2.0 (Mojarra) and RichFaces 3.3.3Final to RF 4.2.3 but my application dont call the backing bean method to an action in a commandButton. This the sources part of button:

<a4j:commandButton type="submit" value="Aceptar"

                                                            action="#{InicioSesion_1.consultarProcesos}"

                                                            styleClass="submit"

                                                            render="ErrorUsernamePanel,ErrorPasswordPanel,errorSummary,idProcesoSelect"

                                                            onclick="this.disabled= true;" oncomplete="this.disabled = false;">

                                                            </a4j:commandButton>

When I start the server the log only show this...
