Re: Curious issue with dropdown control?
I have seen this issue, finally I found out that it is due to mismatch in what I am setting into dropDown in Java and what I am using in JSP.
I have dropDown1.setSelected(iserId); -- this I gave in Java in prerender
But JSP (which is generated) was referring to contactId column in the table
items="#{PortletPage1.contact_DataProvider.options['contact_.contactId,contact_.userId']}"
I changed this to
items="#{PortletPage1.contact_DataProvider.options['contact_.userId,contact_.userId']}" in JSP and then it worked fine
