I am having a issue with Springs Web Flow. If the user clicks on the form submit button I will have the RIGHT values in my bean.
Example the sex field will be MALE or FEMALE. But I then added a AjaxEventDecoration to do a submit on change of the sex dropdown box which is really a form:select and in the bean I will get the value "sex" which is the elementId. Below is my code can you please review it and let me know what you think... I need to fix this value ASAP...

you don't have any closing
</b>
after "Active" but</n>
.these things some times can lead up to weird issues like the one you are having
fix it and try again
[EDIT] I found a solution to you pb: basically remove the decoration and ajax event on your select and do it this way:
it seems like there are some issues with select decoration... I will try to see if I can find another way, but I tested this and it works
I fixed the issue. I removed the Spring.AjaxEventDecoration call and changed the Spring.ElementDecoration to the following:
I am not 100% clear on why the Ajax call did not work but I have my project working with this code now!
