Re-Execute Javascript on Ajax Render

[Dominik Müller]

Hi There,

the problem is that it seems that on an ajax rerender of an partial area of the webpage, the containing javascript code doesn't get called again.
Is there any chance to re-execute the javascript code contained in an partial response?

Dummy Example

<h:form id="form">
   <h:outputScript>
      alert("Alert");
    </h:outputscript>

     <h:commandButton action="#doSome" value="set">
	  <f:ajax render=":form"/>
     </h:commandButton>
</form>

Ajax Call > ReRender the Formular (works) > Javascript Code doens't get called again

Somebody an idea?
Thanks a lot
Dom

Hi Dominik

You're right the javascript code doesn't call beacuase you're making a partial request and the responso only contain the tags for the components specified in the render attribute of the f:ajax tag.
I have an idea if you always wants to run a javascript function when you make the partial request you can use the javascript event onevent of the f:ajax tag, this funtion is fired tree times throughout the lifetime of an Ajax call: begin, complete, success. I give an example:
<script type="text/javascript"> function callFunctionAjaxRequest(data) { if (data.status == "success") theJavaScriptFunctionToCall(); } </script> <f:ajax render=":form" onevent="callFunctionAjaxRequest"/>
