Ajax request issue in IE9 using Richfaces 3.3.3 Final

Question

I am using richfaces 3.3.3 Final and JSF 2.0, some times any of the ajax request occurs a script error will appear like

" SCRIPT87: Invalid argument.

3_3_3.Finalorg.ajax4jsf.javascript.AjaxScript, line 143 character 96 "

It appears only in IE 9. After refreshing the page it works fine.

+1 I'm also seeing these issues like ajax stuff not working in IE. After trying to debug my own app, I just tried showcase & to my surprise even their showcase isn't working correctly for ajax stuff on IE 10! (not using compatibility mode in IE). — Rajat Gupta, Oct 28 '13 at 17:42

Tempororily i resolve the problem by replacing the below lines. It works fine.

Find the file AJAX.js in richfaces-impl.jar

Location : /org/ajax4jsf/javascript/scripts/AJAX.js

line number 1398

      oldnode.outerHTML = new XMLSerializer().serializeToString(newnode);

and replace it by

  if (typeof window.XMLSerializer != "undefined") 
   {
      oldnode.outerHTML = new XMLSerializer().serializeToString(newnode);
   } 
   else if (typeof xmlNode.xml != "undefined") 
   {
      oldnode.outerHTML = xmlNode.xml;
   }

line number 1627

        dst.setAttribute(attr,value);

and replace by adding try, catch

try 
{
        dst.setAttribute(attr, value);
    }
catch (err) 
{
        //alert('Error');
    }

(or)

make a copy of AJAX.js file and modified the above lines and include this file into your main page that will replace the old one.

RichFaces 3.x does not support IE9. Refer to this answer for more details: https://stackoverflow.com/a/7326359/854386
