Hi,
The current implementations will generally work just fine, but if there's a
<f:param> with one of the names "execute", "render", "onevent", etc, such
as <f:param name="execute" value="not a client ID">, then things will fail.
To be sure, I have just tested both Mojarra 2.2.13 and MyFaces 2.2.9 on
this, both indeed expose problems on this. Given below test snippet,
<h:form>
<h:inputText id="foo" value="#{bean.input}" />
<h:commandLink value="test">
<f:ajax execute="foo" />
<f:param name="execute" value="not a client ID" />
</h:commandLink>
</h:form>
In Mojarra, the <f:ajax execute> works fine, but <f:param name="execute">
disappears in request parameter map.
In MyFaces, the <f:ajax execute> will be overridden with <f:param
name="execute"> and thus "someClientId" won't be executed, and the <f:param
name="execute"> also disappears in request parameter map.
Cheers, B
