How is AJAX request handled in JSF 2.0?

Question

I was trying something like below --

The standard JSF impl doesn't use jQuery API to send ajax requests. JSF uses its own internal API which you can find in the auto-included jsf.js file. So the jQuery jQuery.ajaxComplete() is never called. It would only be called when jQuery's $.ajax() (and its shortcuts $.get(), $.post(), etc) is being used. Only jQuery based component libraries use them such as PrimeFaces with and . For standard JSF , you need to use JSF's own jsf.ajax.addOnEvent() handler instead, or the onevent attribute of the .

In your particular case I think the onevent attribute is mose easy:

with

function btnOKhandler(data) {
    if (data.status == 'success') {
        $.modal.close();
    }
}

The data.status can have 3 values: begin, complete and success. See also tables 14-4 and 14-3 of the JSF specification.
