Sorry about the format of my previous message,I resent it again
I started creating some jsp files with jsf and I have some problems with the <f:selectItems> and the javascript pop up calendar (I click the "..." button but I cannot see the pop up. Although, I can see it in the myfaces example ) when I request the search.jsp file I get this Exception from Tomcat:
Do you know the cause of the exception? (When I remove the selectItems tag I dont get the exception)
//----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- exception
javax.servlet.ServletException: Expression: '#{eventHandler.categories}'
javax.faces.webapp.FacesServlet.service(FacesServlet.java:125)

root cause
javax.faces.FacesException: Expression: '#{eventHandler.categories}'

Below I have put the code of the search.jsp file and the method that creates the problem:
<%@ taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/jsf/html"; prefix="h" %> <%@ taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/jsf/core"; prefix="f"%> <%@ taglib uri="http://myfaces.apache.org/extensions"; prefix="x"%>
<f:view>
<h:form id="form">
<x:inputCalendar id="date" value="#{eventHandler.selectedDate}" renderAsPopup="true"
popupTodayString="Today String" popupWeekString="Week String" />
<h:selectOneMenu id="category" value="#{eventHandler.selectedCategory}">
<f:selectItems id="items" value="#{eventHandler.categories}" />
</h:selectOneMenu>
<h:commandButton id="submit" title="Submit" action="succes"/>
</h:form>
</f:view>
//-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The method:
public List getCategories(){
ArrayList retValue=new ArrayList();
SelectItem select=new SelectItem(null,"Horror");
retValue.add(select);
select=new SelectItem(new Boolean(true),"Comedy");
retValue.add(select);
select=new SelectItem(new Boolean(true),"Drama");
retValue.add(select);
select=new SelectItem(new Boolean(true),"Opera");
retValue.add(select); return retValue;
}
Thank you in advance, Kostas
