Trouble using Server-side Map EventListeners

[Ned]

I am new to gmaps4jsf. I want to get the coordinates of the places where the user clicks on the map.

I have no trouble doing this with client-side event listeners:

<m:eventListener eventName="click" jsFunction="mapClickHandler"/>

However, when I use the "actionListener" and "submitOnClick" attributes for server-side events(as instructed in the examples), the bean method never gets called.

My code looks like this:

<h:form id="form">
    <m:map width="500px" height="500px" latitude="24" longitude="15" zoom="2" actionListener="#{mapBean.test}" submitOnClick="true">
    </m:map>
</h:form>

In MapBean.java:

public void test(ActionEvent actionEvent) {
    System.out.println("Test succeeded.");
    }

The test() function gets called if I use the actionListener in a commandButton, so the problem isn't with the bean mapping.

Does anybody have any suggestions?
Thank you.

Hi Ned,

This is a basic scenario that has a working example:

http://www.mashups4jsf.com/gmaps4jsf-examples/pages/mapServerSideEvents.jsf

This is the page code:

http://www.mashups4jsf.com/gmaps4jsf-examples/pages/mapServerSideEvents.jsp.source

This is the map bean code:

https://code.google.com/p/gmaps4jsf/source/browse/trunk/examples-jsf2/src/main/java/com/googlecode/gmaps4jsf/example/beans/MapBean.java

So make sure that you are following this example.
