Hi
I wrote a very simple JSF page as shown below. It works as is with MyFaces.
Now I tried to make it work with Sun RI as well.
Here's the problem: The page appears perfectly fine (it shows two columns of
links). Only one single link works, though: the first one in the left
column.
When I click on that first link, the action handler method ("userClick") is
called and executed fine.
But when I click on any other link, the method is not called at all. All I
get is an "error on page" message in the browser status bar. No log message
on the command line or log file.
Am I doing something wrong? With MyFaces it works fine.

Here's the page:

=======================================
I don't think I need to show the backing bean with the userClick() method
since the error is that this method is not even called (I added a
system.out.println() to this method - which is never executed)
So the problem must be before
BTW I am using Sun RI 1.1.01 as shipped with the MyEclipseIDE extensions.
Thanks a lot for your very much appreciated help
