Hi Sven,
AFSB sets it only if :
if (getComponent() instanceof IFormSubmittingComponent)
{
String submittingComponentName =
((IFormSubmittingComponent)getComponent()).getInputName();
attributes.setSubmittingComponentName(submittingComponentName);
}
i.e. if it is attached to a submitting component like a button.
It is the same in 1.5
(org.apache.wicket.ajax.form.AjaxFormSubmitBehavior#getEventHandler):
if (getComponent() instanceof IFormSubmittingComponent)
{
call.append("'")
.append(((IFormSubmittingComponent)getComponent()).getInputName())
.append("' ");
}
