How to programmatically select an item in rich:comboBox with selectItems ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Key: RF-7628 URL: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/RF-7628 Project: RichFaces Issue Type: Feature Request Components: component Environment: Windows XP, IE or Firefox Reporter: Leonid Sokolin I need to find out how I could change the selected item in Rich combo box, which has collection of selectItems populated from the database. I am able to change the value of this combo box, when another combo box has selected value changed, but if I click on drop down, it still shows first record as selected, even if text field has a different value. I have to find that value in the list before it would be highlighted. I would appreciate, if someone would tell me how to access the selectItem for this combo box. Please see XHTML below: <h:outputText value="Product:" /> <a4j:region> <rich:comboBox id="product" width="300" value="#{piQueryToolBean.product}" enableManualInput="false" valueChangeListener="#{piQueryToolBean.changeBenchmark}" immediate="true" converter="#{productConverter}"> <a4j:support event="onselect" reRender="benchmark,benchmarkList" /> <f:selectItems id="productList" value="#{piQueryToolBean.productList}" /> </rich:comboBox> </a4j:region> <rich:message for="product" style="color:red;" /> <h:outputText value="Benchmark:" /> <a4j:region> <rich:comboBox id="benchmark" width="300" value="#{piQueryToolBean.benchmark}" directInputSuggestions="true" enableManualInput="false" converter="#{benchmarkConverter}" onlistcall="findBenchmark()" > <f:selectItems id="benchmarkList" value="#{piQueryToolBean.benchmarkList}" /> </rich:comboBox> </a4j:region> <rich:message for="benchmark" style="color:red;" /> -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
