MultiplePropertySelection HELP?!

[Ameet Shah <as...@tirawireless.com>]

Hello,

I am trying to use the multiple property selection component in the Tapestry contrib library.  I have been able to set it up so that it displays the specified output correctly, but for some reason, when I submit the form, it the list is empty despite the fact that I have more than one option selected.  It appears that it is actually removing everything from the list, and then not re-adding the ones that are selected.  Has anyone else had a similar problem?  Its probably a config issue on my part.  

Any help would be GREATLY appreciated.  Thanks!

Here is the relevant code:
