just trying to integrate this commandLink

<a4j:commandLink reRender="results-view" actionListener="#{myaction}" oncomplete="return false;" value="#{msg1.advanced_search}">
                            <a4j:support event="onclick">
                                <f:setPropertyActionListener value="./page.xhtml" target="#{changeViews['new-view'].value}" />
                            </a4j:support>
                        </a4j:commandLink>

On an applicacion which is using JSF2. If I leave it, I get this error

Tag Library supports namespace: http://richfaces.org/a4j, but no tag was defined for name: support

I was trying to find something on the net, but I couldn't figure out. Some help would be great.
Thanks in advance

The a4j:support has been replaced by a4j:ajax since RichFaces 4.x.

You seem to be reading RichFaces 3.x documentation or just have upgraded RichFaces 3.x to 4.x. This is a pretty major step where a lot of things are been changed. Read the migration guide (in this particular case, it's described in a4j components) and also read the new RF4 component reference.
