Disable/enable commandbutton on ajax event

问题

I want to be able to disable the commandbutton below once it's hit and enable it once the event listener runs and msg1 is rendered.

<h:commandButton value="Submit">                    
  <f:ajax execute="@form" render="msg1" listener="{bean.method}" />
</h:commandButton>

How could I do this?

UPDATE: I found out that I can attach onclick event to the commandButton element itself to disable it. How can I detect the listener method has returned so I can enable the button again?

You could do it with help of the onevent attribute of <f:ajax> which points to a JavaScript function which handles the JSF Ajax events.

E.g.:

<h:commandButton value="Submit">
  <f:ajax execute="@form" render="msg1" listener="#{bean.method}" onevent="handleDisableButton" />
</h:commandButton>

(note that I fixed the wrong EL in listener as well)

with this JS:

function handleDisableButton(data) {
    var buttonElement = data.source; // The HTML DOM element which invoked the ajax event.
    var ajaxStatus = data.status; // Can be "begin", "complete" and "success".

    switch (ajaxStatus) {
        case "begin": // This is called right before ajax request is been sent.
            buttonElement.disabled = true;
            break;

        case "complete": // This is called right after ajax response is received.
            // We don't want to enable it yet here, right?
            break;

        case "success": // This is called when ajax response is successfully processed.
            buttonElement.disabled = false;
            break;
    }
}

If you use richfaces, the a4j:commandButton has the status attribute which prevent this.
