f:attribute problem

[Iordanov, Borislav \(GIC\)]

Hi,

Given the code:

    <h:commandLink id="cmdSelectFromSearch">
      <h:outputText value="#{sRequest.id}"/>    
      <f:attribute name="serviceRequestId" value="#{sRequest.id}"/>    
    </h:commandLink>

The value of #{sRequest.id} in the outputText tag is correctly evaluated
(it displays), but not so for the f:attribute where the evaluation
returns null. Any idea why? I need to attach this attribute to the
command component as a parameter to my action listener (not shown here).

Thanks,
Bolerio
