problem with rich:select - clearing input field [accidentally]

[izeos]

Hi all,

I've got a problem with richfaces select input:

<rich:select id="mySelect"
    immediate="true"
    defaultLabel="#{myBean.currentType}"
    enableManualInput="false"
    value="#{myBean.currentType}"
    valueChangeListener="#{myBean.listener()}">
    <f:selectItems value="#{myBean.typesList}" />
    <a4j:ajax
        immediate="true"
        event="selectitem"
        render="sth_else, mySelect"
        execute="@this"
        limitRender="true" />
</rich:select>

it's all working here, but when accidentally user makes actions like
(sorry, i am not sure how to explain this so i'll try to do it with steps)

-> when u click on current label many times, u select one part or a whole [common use]

->clicking more should repeat this -unselected/part/whole and again

->here is a problem - by doing this fast u can clear the field (even with enableManualInput is false)

it generates a problem ->now my value got nothing, currentType in my list is null then and some actions [of course] goes wrong.

I can check if currentType or event.getNewValue() is null but is there any way to solve this without tricks or workarounds?

Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks,

Radek
