So, I fixed the problem. From what I've seen outjected lists and jsf tags that take in lists don't mix well. After removing the @Out(required = false) from List clients and the @In(required = false) from Object selectedClient, and adding getters and setters for both, everything is working great. Now I have a new question, what is the 'best practice' for using these jsf tags? View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4106565#...
