    AJAX (a4j rerender) not working in Internet Explorer

    asiandub

      Hello,


      I have problems with a4j-reRender and Internet Explorer 7


      The following code works fine in Firefox, but doesn't re-render anything in IE7:




      <a4j:commandButton action="#{mybean.myMethod}" value="fire" reRender="myText"/>
      <h:outputText id="myText" value="#{mybean.myOtherMethod(param)}" />



      (mybean in conversation scope)


      From my observations I can tell that IE seems to end the conversation on each call and re-instantiate the bean. myOtherMethod is definitely not executed in IE.


      Firefox, on the other hand, is simply calling myOtherMethod, without re-instantiating the bean.


      I found out that IE might need some security adjustments in order to be able to execute AJAX. I tried out almost everything for hours, wouldn't change anything.


      I also played with the enable native XMLHTTP-support-switch. No effect.


      Any ideas?


      Many thanks,
      Jan
