f:selectItem escape attribute doesn't work ?

[Patrick Meyer]

Hi,
 
I would like to format selectItem label with html tags in  selectOneRadio 
component. But the label is not rendered as HTML. What I'm doing wrong? 
 
<t:selectOneRadio id="idRadioJSF" layout="spread" >
        <f:selectItem itemValue="1" 
itemLabel="#{controller.formatLabel('test')}" escape="false" />
</t:selectOneRadio> 
 
<t:radio index="0" for="idRadioJSF" id="testRADIOJSF0" />
 
 
My Method looks like :
 
public String formatLabel(String label){
        
        return  "<span class=\"description\">"+label+"</span>" ;
        
 }
 
Browser render it like :
 
<input id="page:tabRepeat:0:parameterRepeat:0:testRADIOJSF0" type="radio" 
name="page:tabRepeat:0:parameterRepeat:0:idRadioJSF" value="1" />
<label for="page:tabRepeat:0:parameterRepeat:0:testRADIOJSF0"> 
<span 
class="description">test</span></label>
 
 
 
 I'm using Myfaces ver 2.1.1 and Tomahawk lib.
 
Regards,
Patrick
