I just tried it with t:messages with forceSpan="true". No luck there either.
I also ran an a4j:log and, surprisingly, it looks almost identical before and after the failed validation. Despite the fact that the method does not appear to fire (I used Eclipse to watch for a breakpoint), it is actually getting the values and the Ajax log shows it updating the appropriate elements. Unfortunately, the elements displayed on the screen remain the same. It seems like the AJAX stuff is all working and that JSF is just refusing to cooperate. This is incredibly puzzling and frustrating. I am now moving past the "careful debugging" phase and into the "curse at the screen, pound on the walls, and frighten my co-workers" phase.
