That's a specification version. I was asking for the implementation and version. Is it the Sun reference implementation (Sun JSF RI)? If so, which build?
It works flawlessly here on the latest build of Sun JSF RI 1.1, the 1.1_02. You can get the latest build at [http://javaserverfaces.dev.java.net]. I was using Tomcat 6.0.14 by the way, it might make difference.
Does it work if you use plain vanilla JSP files and do not pass the request through the FacesServlet? I recall some bugs related to it, but I am not sure anymore if it is related to the JSF implementation or application server used.
