SyntaxError: Unexpected token : Action Function

Hi,

I am getting error  in browser console as "SyntaxError: Unexpected token :", and my action function is not getting called?

What could be the reason?

If apex:param tag donot have the "Name" attribute, you may get this error and actionfunction call will fail. Try adding name in param tag, it should work. 

If we donot add name attribute, salesforce will add param name dynamically containing ":" and javascript will fail.
