AjaxUpdateLink's action is not called if placed inside an AjaxObserveField
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: WONDER-243
                 URL: http://issues.objectstyle.org/jira/browse/WONDER-243
             Project: Project Wonder
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: Ricardo J. Parada
         Assigned To: Anjo Krank


I used an AjaxObserveField to observe multiple input elements.  Well, actually in this example I only have one input element just to illustrate my point.  

<wo:form>
<wo:AjaxUpdateContainer id="Foo">
	<wo:AjaxObserveField elementName="span" updateContainerID="Foo">
		<wo:textfield value="$value"/>
		<wo:AjaxUpdateLink action="$setA" string="A" updateContainerID="Foo"/> | 
		<wo:AjaxUpdateLink action="$setB" string="B" updateContainerID="Foo"/>
	</wo:AjaxObserveField>
</wo:AjaxUpdateContainer>
</wo:form>

then in my .java file I have this:

	public String value = "X";

	public WOActionResults setA() {
		value = "A";
		return null;
	}
	
	public WOActionResults setB() {
		value = "B";
		return null;
	}

Notice I'm using the observe field to wrap the input element so that I don't need to worry about specifying an observeFieldID.  

Now back to the problem.  The A | B links are supposed to invoke the setA() and setB() and update the Foo update container.
However, neither setA() or setB() is getting called.  The update container is getting refreshed though.

I believe this is a bug.  The workaround is to place the AjaxUpdateLinks outside the AjaxObserveField.

In other words, this works:

<wo:form>
<wo:AjaxUpdateContainer id="Foo">
	<wo:AjaxObserveField elementName="span" updateContainerID="Foo">
		<wo:textfield value="$value"/>
	</wo:AjaxObserveField>
	<wo:AjaxUpdateLink action="$setA" string="A" updateContainerID="Foo"/> | 
	<wo:AjaxUpdateLink action="$setB" string="B" updateContainerID="Foo"/>
</wo:AjaxUpdateContainer>
</wo:form>
