suggestionbox event triggers form submit, second setter pass
shooali Mar 27, 2007 10:08 AMHi,
I have a problem using suggestionbox:
when entering some thing into the inputtext bound to the suggestion box, the whole form is submitted (which is ok, since I did not define any region), the problem happens in a selectOneRadio component I have on the same page, that in the second call to it's vaue's property setter, a null is passed as parameter. I have no idea where it comes from, and it does not seem to pass through the validator defined there at all.
If instead, I just put a a4j:support on the page, that triggers a full form submit, every thing works fine.
Please find attached the page source.
any help is most appreciated.
Thanks,
