------------------------------------
Summary: Update of 'javax.faces.ViewState' input elements fails
Key: MYFACES-3574
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MYFACES-3574
Project: MyFaces Core
Issue Type: Bug
Components: General
Affects Versions: 2.1.8, 2.1.7
Environment: Internet Explorer 7
Reporter: Mircea Toma
The issue resides in the JS code that is responsible for updating
javax.faces.ViewState key in the hidden input elements.
In IE7 during the second update the lookup for the 'javax.faces.ViewState'
named input element fails. The element[name] syntax is used for the lookup
which is known to fail for elements with complex names (such as
'javax.faces.ViewState').
When the lookup fails to find the input element a second input element is
created which will contain the new javax.faces.ViewState value. The next submit
will send two 'javax.faces.ViewState' parameters but only the first one (the
oldest) is read by the server state manager . This old key is not known to the
server anymore, hence the ViewExpired exception is thrown on the server.
