selectList - how to pass a parameter to backing bean method from XHTML?

[Lisa]

I want to build a SelectItem list by calling a method in my backing bean, but
I want to be able to pass the backing bean a String (from the XHTML).


---
This is what I currently have:

    <h:selectOneListbox
            rendered="#{carBean.listMode}"
            id="idSelectVehicleType"
            value="#{carBean.vehicleType}"
            size="1">

        <f:selectItems id="idCarBeanTypeList"
value="#{carBean.vehicleTypeList}"/>
    </h:selectOneListbox>

where vehicleTypeList is a method in CarBean.getVehicleTypeList()

---
So I want to change the method signature to accept a String like so:

  CarBean.getVehicleTypeList(String s)

and in the XHTML pass String s to CarBean.getVehicleTypeList(String s).

Is this possible?
  value="#{carBean.vehicleTypeList("myString")}"


thanks
