selection list w/ null default?

[Mark Lundquist <ml...@comcast.net>]

Hi,

I have a <selection-list type="flow-jxpath"> whose list is a Collection 
that's passed directly out of the model layer of my application.  
However, the field is optional and I need the user to be able to submit 
with a null value for this widget.  The label should be something like 
"-- none --".

I guess I could call addItem() from the flowscript, but it looks like 
that would append the new value to the end of the selection list.  I 
kind of want it to be at the beginning.

How do I do this?

Thanks,
—ml—

ah, ok... this project is still using 2.1.7, looks like that went in in 
2.1.8.

Thanks a lot,

Hi Mark,

Use the @null-text. In your case, something like:

<fd:selection-list type="flow-jxpath" list-path="myList" 
value-path="beanId" label-path="beanLabel" null-text="-- none --"/>

Best Regards,
