a4j:jsFunction neither listener nor actionListener is called
Hi everyone,
I am migrating an application from Richfaces 3 to 4 and having problems with <a4j:jsFunction>. It does not seem to call any listeners. I have created a test project based on maven archetype and, however, the actionListener is called, the listener attribute is still seems to be ignored. In my actual program, neither of the listeners are called. Could anyone help me? Possibly someone could give some insight into the problem.
The following snippets are related to my test app and in the case the actionListener is called, listener is not called. Again, in my actual application neither is called.
