*On a readonly component the model value will not change! * I know, I try to explain my point better with an image, as you can see when I load the edit form the select have a value selected readOnly, the code of the value selected is 21. Ok then I modify some others value and click on the <h:commandLink when in my backing_bean I get the value of the selected code in the select if (when the select is readonly) is 0! If I modify the jsp code and put readonly=false, in the backing_bean i get a 21 (correct value).
