It was very frustrating, I believe it's because you are updating using a zone or another XHR call, so even though your component is only rendered once, it's rendered multiple times without a full page refresh, which is why tapestry adds the uniquifier (not a real word). There were two workaround proposed at the time (search the list), one is a modified getElementById which searches for the prefix (your original id), but this was too slow for my tastes, I instead now use getElementbyId on something outside of the ajax updated stuff, then get the appropriate select by type (this isn't very refactor friendly but worked well enough for me). If the above code works (can't test it myself right now, but I think I tried that before and it didn't work as I wanted) then it would be much more elegant. IIRC it instead overwrites your id= with the unique t:id Steve - Original Message - From: Gabriel Rodriguez [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Tapestry users users@tapestry.apache.org Sent: Monday, 17 November, 2008 6:00:50 PM GMT +02:00 Athens, Beirut, Bucharest, Istanbul Subject: RE: unique ids for a select boxes If I remember correctly, this will happen if you're creating more than one instance of it per page.
