MM> Hi Leo, MM> Well, so this is really two issues - first, it is not documented, MM> second, I still think if we build the items from a map, it should go MM> the other way round. Doch, f:selectItems sure does have the documentation. https://javaserverfaces.dev.java.net/nonav/docs/2.0/pdldocs/facelets/f/se... MM> Can you open issues? He did open <https://javaserverfaces-spec-public.dev.java.net/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=7...;, to which I just added this comment: Leonardo, we can either specify that the "var" attribute is unsupported for f:selectItems where value is a Map, or we can push this to 2.1. I am constrained to these choice because to make "f:selectItems var points to map" work needs a behavior change. By default I've moved it to 2.1. Please comment if you want the "not supported" option and have it in 2.0 Rev a. Ed -- | edburns(a)oracle.com | | homepage: | http://ridingthecrest.com/
