Javascripts and ADF Taskflows

Question

Hello All,
I am using JDeveloper 11.1.1.5 (on Fedora 64-bit).
This one has been driving me nuts for a while. I have uploaded a simple testcase here - http://dox.bijesh.info/SimpleJS.zip.
In this particular testcase, I have an ADF taskflow composed of 2 page fragments. This taskflow is embedded as a region in a JSF page. Both the page fragments include some javascript embedded via af:resource and invoked through a clientListener on a button within each. Now, the JS on any page other than the "default activity" page does not get fired on the button action. It is as if the javascript did not get loaded at all. In fact when I examine this in Chrome, the error console shows an error as soon as I navigate to the second page fragment - "Uncaught ReferenceError: jspage2 is not defined".
I have tried using trh:script and that had the same problem. This happens with referenced JS files (through the source attribute) too.
My original use-case is to build a reusable Maps component which involves quite a bit of Javascript. Being a reusable library, I wouldn't ideally have control of where my taskflow will be embedded. And therefore embedding the JS in the initial pages is not a viable solution.
All suggestions are welcome.
Best Regards,
Bijesh

Hi Frank,
First thanks for your answer.
I moved my script this way:
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?>
<ui:composition xmlns:ui="http://java.sun.com/jsf/facelets" xmlns:af="http://xmlns.oracle.com/adf/faces/rich"
                xmlns:f="http://java.sun.com/jsf/core" xmlns:dvt="http://xmlns.oracle.com/dss/adf/faces">

            </dvt:map>

                <af:commandButton text="escondido" id="cb1"
                                  binding="#{backingBeanScope.beanDvtMapas.cb1}" visible="false" clientComponent="true">
                    <af:serverListener type="clickMap"
                                       method="#{backingBeanScope.beanDvtMapas.recebeIpid}"/>
                </af:commandButton>
                <af:resource type="javascript" source="../js/mapUtil.js"/>
                <af:resource type="javascript">
                     var temas = new Array();
                     temas[0] = 'PCM_DISTRIBUICAO';
                     temas[1] = 'CAIXA_TERMINAL';
                     var map = AdfPage.PAGE.findComponent( 'r1:0:m2' );
                    alert(map); //undefined
                    showMapWithThemes('m2', temas);
                </af:resource>
            </af:group>
        </f:facet>
    </af:decorativeBox>
    <!--oracle-jdev-comment:auto-binding-backing-bean-name:beanDvtMapas-->
</ui:composition>My script was loaded but it didn't find the components in the page fragments, what can I do to solve this question?
Do you have a idea?
Today I try to search the components this way:
AdfPage.PAGE.findComponent( REGION_ID + 0 + COMPONENT_ID)[]s,
