For that particular sample no “event” attribute was specified on the <f:ajax> tag. As a result, the behavior was attached using the default event for the component, which is defined by the ClientBehaviorHolder.getDefaultEventName() API. In this case we were attaching the behavior to an <h:commandButton> , which defines the logical “action” event as its default event. The command button’s renderer renders behaviors attached to this event in the button’s onclick handler.

Make sense?

I was in munich on both JSF days. In your session “JSF Component Behaviors” you showed between sheets 45 and 56 “A Simple Sample Behavior”.

On sheet 56 “What Gets Rendered?” you showed that the onclick-attribute is affected, but I don’t understand why it is the onclick-attribut, why not onchange, onfocus, or some other attribute? Where did you ‘ve set this information?
