Raindog, I would ask in the new ajax4jsf forum. See [1].

One other thing... it occurred to me that I could probably bypass any complications from JSF validation by adding immediate="true" to the "a4j:support" tag. The method did fire when I did this, but the elements defined in "rerender" did not refresh. I'm sure the solution is in here somewhere, but I'm just not seeing it. raindogs wrote:I'm having a problem getting ajax4jsf to play nice with jsf form validation. The page below uses ajax4jsf to run a method from the bean when the value in the "state" list changes and update a couple of fields. This works great under most circumstances. However, if the user submits the form *without* filling in the required "addressName" field, the form does not submit and the error message is displayed. This is as it should be. The trouble comes when, if the form has been submitted and is displaying the error message for the "addressName" field, the user changes the "state" field, which should still fire off the "loadState" method. In this case, the "loadState" method never fires and none of the fields in the "reRender" list are refreshed, even if there is now a value in the "addressname" field. The snippet below should show all of the relvant code, any help would be much appreciated.
