ajax - JSF - Why setter is not called this time? -

as usual, i've trouble using ajax call on requested scoped bean.

i've bean :

@managedbean @requestscoped public class articlesselector implements serializable {     @managedproperty(value="#{param.type}")     private string type;     private string zone;     private string order;      @postconstruct     public void init() {         if(type==null || type.trim().isempty()) { this.type="1"; }         if(zone==null || zone.trim().isempty()) { this.zone="list"; }         if(order==null || order.trim().isempty()) { this.order="1"; }     }      public string gettype() { return type; }     public void settype(string type) { this.type = type; }      public string getzone() { return zone; }     public void setzone(string zone) { this.zone=zone; }      public string getorder() { return order; }     public void setorder(string order) { this.order = order; }      public arraylist<string[]> getarticlelist() {          ...          system.out.println("order = "+this.order);          ...     } } 

when call :

<h:panelgroup layout="block" id="articlescontent">     <h:form id="formarticles">         <h:outputscript name="jsf.js" library="javax.faces" target="head" />         <h:panelgroup rendered="#{articlesselector.zone=='list'}">             <h:panelgroup layout="block" id="articlescontentlist">                 <h:commandlink>                         <f:setpropertyactionlistener target="#{articlesselector.order}" value="2" />                         <f:ajax event="click" render=":articlescontent"/>                         <h:graphicimage value="img/arrow_down.png" alt="arrow down"/>                     </h:commandlink>                 <h:outputlabel value="#{articlesselector.articlelist}" />                             </h:panelgroup>         </h:panelgroup>     </h:form> </h:panelgroup>   

the order value 1. seems setter method not called. time not render fault, because action rendered on apply request , update model phases (in fact, system.out.println("order = "+this.order); trougth #{articlesselector.articlelist} it's called every time click on image). so, what's time?

request scope make me bit nervous :)

thanks

the f:ajax should fired on event="action", not event="click".

_{yes, know ever suggested in comment of question use click, apparently wrong™. sorry :)}
