Luis Tama commented on RF-5046:
-------------------------------

Hi guys...

rich:combobox does what it was designed to (an input text component with client-side suggestions).

If we want to use it for selecting of values based on selected labels (rendered by the component), we must wait for a new component to be designed (or design it)... or enhance it on the client-side (as I did)...

In this article I share my (working) approach:

Enhanced rich:comboBox: Values (not only Text) and RegExp Suggestions
http://community.jboss.org/docs/DOC-15534

So please test it and let me know what you think.

God bless you.

Best regards,
Luis Tama

> I believe the two mentioned components should be capable of replacing values with labels as < select> and <h:selectOneMenu> does.
> Current implementation limits their use, for instance they can't act as entity selectors in conjunction with <s:selectItems> and <s:convertEntity>.
> I don't see a work around the problem.
