Experiencing odd behavior using ICEfaces app in Internet Explorer

[C Bell]

I have a basic home page in my ICEfaces w/ facelets application. When I view the app in Internet Explorer none of the commandlinks work. But viewing the page in Firefox everything looks fine.

The rendered markup for both browsers are the same. Has anyone else experienced this?

Internet Explorer

<a 
    class="iceCmdLnk" 
    href="javascript:;" 
    id="navForm:homeLink" 
    onblur="setFocus('');" 
    onclick="var form=formOf(this);form['navForm:_idcl'].value='navForm:homeLink';return iceSubmit(form,this,event);" 
    onfocus="setFocus(this.id);">Home</a>

Firefox

<a 
    class="iceCmdLnk" 
    href="javascript:;" 
    id="navForm:homeLink" 
    onblur="setFocus('');" 
    onclick="var form=formOf(this);form['navForm:_idcl'].value='navForm:homeLink';return iceSubmit(form,this,event);" 
    onfocus="setFocus(this.id);">Home</a>

Thanks for all of your help.

By default, ICEfaces compresses the underlying JavaScript to improve performance. The problem is that Internet Explorer doesn't do well with compressed JavaScript. To get your ICEfaces app to work in IE, add this

  <context-param>
    <param-name>com.icesoft.faces.compressResources</param-name>
    <param-value>false</param-value>
  </context-param>

to your web.xml file.
