[jboss-user] [JBoss Seam] - s:selectItem problem while persisting

[panky_p]

Hi I am trying to save to database the value selected from list but it is saving it as object of selectItem
my xhtml code is 

  | <h:selectOneMenu id="carList" value="#{carBean.carCategory}">
  | <s:selectItems var="carCategory" value="#{carDetail.carCategoryList}" 
  | label="#{carCategory.label}" noSelectionLabel="Select Car Category..."/>
  | </h:selectOneMenu>
and my list is 
  | public List<SelectItem> carCategoryList() 
  | {
  |   get values for car list from database such as Audi, BMW etc
  | }
  | 
it works fine till populating list and retriving data from database as well but in database i want to store it as string "Audi" instead it saves it as object string
javax.faces.model.SelectItem at 15817ba

can any one help me how can i store it as an actual string??

Thanks
Panky
