suggestionbox doesn't work. Pls help.

rajshake Jul 3, 2007 1:41 PM

Environment:
MyFaces 1.1.4, Tomahawk 1.1.4, RichFaces 3.0.1, Ajax4JSF 1.1.1, Facelets 1.1.10 on TomCat 6.0

Every single richFaces component that I have tried works fine, but I could not get the suggestion box to work no matter what. The demo war deployed works fine. But when I try to use the suggestionbox component in my webapp, that's when it fails. There are no JavaScript errors. I can see in the log that the backing bean is getting initialized. (I put printlns in the constructor). But when I type "A" in the suggestion box, the autocomplete method is not getting called. Absolutely no errors in the logs.
I have pretty much copied the exact code that you have in the demo war.
Something in my webapp is not right, causing this to fail.
I have tried to swap MyFaces with RI jars, still same result. Also tried with 3.0.1 RichFaces snapshot jar, still same.

I am willing to email my war to anyone interested and willing to help.
Any advice is highly appreciated.

Thanks,
Raj

MyFaces 1.1.5
Tomahawk 1.1.5
Facelets 1.1.12
Ajax4jsf and Rich Faces 1.1.2 and 3.0.2 SNAPSHOTS.

In the open source world - it should be the first suggestion because of numerouse bugs that fixes from version to version.
