RE: HtmlSelectOneMenu dynamically

[Mike Otto]

Hello Richard,

thanks for answering. Now I have a clue about what I should do ..

The code below works like a charm, except that I don't know how
to declare a item as selected. I looked up
javax.faces.component.UISelectItem.class

and found

 private String _itemDescription = null;
    private Boolean _itemDisabled = null;
    private String _itemLabel = null;
    private Object _itemValue = null;
    private Object _value = null;

(no private Object _selected)

Besides I still do not have a solution for component type
javax.faces.SelectItem_s_ But I think with Items in singular
I have more control, right?

Regards Mike

        selectElement.addChild(itemElement2);

        root.addChild(selectElement);
