I’m using a <select1> and have found the
following: If it has no “appearance” attribute, the
drop-down box that displays only allows selection of the first item in the list
*after* selecting some other item
in the list and then changing it. In other words, without the appearance
attribute, you can’t easily select the initial item in the list. However, if you put the “appearance” attribute
on the <select1> (with any of the three allowed values) the problem
disappears. Since the “appearance” attribute is optional, the
behavior that I’m seeing when it’s absent is clearly problematic. Any
guess as to whether this is an XForm issue, or one of converting the XForm into
HTML via OPS? Thanks, Don -- You receive this message as a subscriber of the [hidden email] mailing list. To unsubscribe: mailto:[hidden email] For general help: mailto:[hidden email]?subject=help ObjectWeb mailing lists service home page: http://www.objectweb.org/wws |

Hi Don,
I can't reproduce the issue. I have tried to edit xforms-controls/view.xhtml and remove the appearance="full" on the first <xforms:select1>. It then appears as a combo box, the second value is selected (FedEx), and I can select the first value (UPS) in the browser just fine. Maybe there is something else in your code that triggers this behavior. Would you have some code shows the issue and runs in the sandbox?

Hi Alex,
See the attached file. The first item, when running in the sandbox, can't be selected to update the element <propertySelection>. The others can. You can only get the first item to select if you first pick another item, and then change to the first one.
