                 Key: JBSEAM-1648
                 URL: http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBSEAM-1648
             Project: JBoss Seam
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 2.0.0.BETA1
         Environment: JBoss 4.2.0 GA   
Java 1.6.0_02
Seam 2.0 Beta 1
JSF 1.2
            Reporter: Jennifer Miller


There seems to be an issue with s:selectItems.  Specificly, using the noSelectionLabel attribute causes incorrect html output.  Before upgrading to Seam 2.0.0 Beta1 from Seam 1.2.1GA the following snippit of code worked correctly:

<h:selectOneMenu id="selectRequestType" 
          value="#{serviceRequest.requestType}" 
          converter="requestTypeConverter" 
          styleClass="field" 
          onchange="loadServiceValues(this.options[this.selectedIndex].value)" 
           required="false">
 <s:selectItems value="#{lookupTable.requestTypes}"
                     var="type"
	label="#{type.name}" 
                     noSelectionLabel="-- select --" />
</h:selectOneMenu>

After upgrading the generated html correctly concists of a <select> with <option> elements that match the list from [ lookupTable.requestTypes ].  However, the <option> matching [ serviceRequest.requestType ] (the selected option) did not have [ selected="true" ].   The [ selected="true" ] attribute is missing from the selected <option> element.

If [ noSelectionLabel="--select --" ] is deleted from the above snipet of code the error does not occur.  The selected <option> is output with [ selected="true" ].
