This usage seems wrong to me. The 'name' attribute will be mapped to the
'name' attribute of the resulting HTML <select> tag (you will get <select
name="affiliateTransport.affiliateCategories"></select>). What you are
looking for ist something like

<ww:select name="'selectedCategories'" list="valueStore.allCategories"
value="affiliateTransport.affiliateCategories"/>,

assuming that valueStore.allCategories contains the list of choices and
affiliateTransport.affiliateCategories the list of preselected ids. Please
note that I do not know if the <ww:select> tag does indeed support
preselecting multiple entries, i.e. accepts a list for the 'value'
attribute. Yet judging from 'select.vm', the velocity template file for the
<select> tag, it might do so.

Unfortunately, I do not know whether Longs will be handled correctly. My
(limited) experience thus far is that WebWork almost always does what I
expect it to do.

Hope this helps,
