    Excel Spreadsheet Rendering - Iterating in <e:column>?

      Hello All,


      When I render the following (test) spreadsheet, the result comes back with a single number (resultCount) only:


      <e:workbook
 xmlns:e="http://jboss.com/products/seam/excel"
 xmlns:f="http://java.sun.com/jsf/core">
 <e:worksheet name="test">
   <f:facet name="header">
    <e:cell value="#{surveyResultsByDate.resultCount}" />
  </f:facet>
  <e:column value="#{surveyResultsByDate.resultList}" var="surveyResult">
   <e:cell value="#{surveyResult.comment}" />
  </e:column>
 </e:worksheet>
</e:workbook>



      However if I more the iteration into the worksheet, the spreadsheet renders correctly, i.e. both resultCount and surveyResult.comment render:


      <e:workbook
 xmlns:e="http://jboss.com/products/seam/excel"
 xmlns:f="http://java.sun.com/jsf/core">
 <e:worksheet name="test" value="#{surveyResultsByDate.resultList}" var="surveyResult">
   <f:facet name="header">
    <e:cell value="#{surveyResultsByDate.resultCount}" />
  </f:facet>
  <e:column>
   <e:cell value="#{surveyResult.comment}" />
  </e:column>
 </e:worksheet>
</e:workbook>



      Does anyone know what is incorrect with the first example? No exceptions are thrown and as far as I can tell the documentation says it should work. I am using Seam v2.1.2.


      Thanks,
