SelectManyListBox mover box impl
I have been trying to implement two SelectManyListboxs. The first is to
select from, the second, to submit selected values (also referred to as a
"mover box"). The first is a list of unselected items. The second list is
initially populated with values selected previously. Because the second
list doesn't have the complete list of items, when I add one of the
unselected items, I get the validation error:
Validation Error "userLocations": Value is not a valid option.
I have figured out that this is because the newly selected item is not a
member of the original list used in <f:selectItems/>, for the second
SelectManyListbox.
What I'm wondering is:
1. Is there a way to avoid the validation?
2. What tenet of the JSF doctrine requires the existence of this
restriction?

Well you will need your sandbox version to match your tomahawk version.
So yes, I believe an upgrade would be required.

I am using this component from sandbox myself, and I load the values for
each box from separate database fields. So yes, you can set both boxes
initial contents when desired, rather than leaving one of them empty. :)
Basically, you have a regular selectItems list and also an array for the
selected box. Anything not selected will show up in the other box.

I happen to be using Tomahawk ATM. I did see the sandbox component, but
wasn't sure if it was compatible with my current version of MyFaces (1.1.1).
Would I have to go to 1.1.4?
Haven't player around with it yet, so I'm not sure if it's supported (I
suspect that it is), but I would also have to set the initial values of the
"receiving listbox." The example only shows a default empty receiver.

Monkeyden,
There is a component that implements this functionality, currently in
the Sandbox - s:selectManyPicklist. I believe there is also something
like this in Trinidad.
