dropdownmenu duplicated value

[angela]

Hi everybody!
My issue is that i got one duplicated value in my drop down list when I render my ProjectEdit page(to modify and not create for the firt time)
I know it's logic that I have this issue cause I'm using selectItem and selectItems tags in the same time, this is my jsf selectOneMenu part:

<s:decorate id="projetField" template="layout/edit.xhtml">
            <ui:define name="label">Projet</ui:define>
                   <h:selectOneMenu value="#{selectedProject}" id="selectedProject" style=" width : 239px;">
                      <f:selectItem itemLabel="#{versionHome.instance.projet.nomProjet}" itemValue="#{"/>
                        <s:selectItems value="#{projectToTrack}" 
                           var="_project" 
                           label="#{_project.nomProjet}"
                            />
                        <s:convertEntity/> 
                        <a:support event="onchange" action="#{projectAction.test()}" reRender="projetField" />
                 
                           </h:selectOneMenu> 
        </s:decorate>

the thing is that i added the selectItem tag cause I needed that the default value of the dropdownmenu to be the value of my bean.

So please can u suggest me something to solve this problem!
Thanks in advance

Hi,

This is normal behaviour. The selectItems will default to the value of the bean, so when you create the bean, you need to set it to that specific value first. When you edit, it will always default to the bean.value.
