Hide
When a JSF form is submitted using a h:commandLink, the onsubmit listener of the placeholder component is not triggered. This behaviour can interfere with the enforcement of component validations. The problem originates upstream in Mojarra and will be addressed in Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application Platform 6.4. In the interim, a workaround for this issue is to use the a4j:commandLink instead of the h:commandLink.

When using <rich:placeholder> inside <rich:autocomplete required="true">, <h:commandLink> doesn't validate an empty field but <h:commandButton> does.

Snippet from the attached reproducer:

<h:form>

    <rich:autocomplete mode="client" autocompleteList="#{richBean.names}"

                       value="#{richBean.name}" required="true">

        <rich:placeholder value="Placeholder"/>

    </rich:autocomplete>

    <h:commandButton value="BUTTON"/>

    <h:commandLink value="LINK"/>

</h:form>
