title: How to set variable from selectOneMenu in JSF
body: <p>Here is what I have       </p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;h:form&gt;
          &lt;h:selectOneMenu value="#{userBean.chosen_Cinema}"&gt;
              &lt;f:selectItem itemValue="#{null}" itemLabel="Cinemas Available" /&gt;
              &lt;f:selectItem itemValue="Stafford" itemLabel="Stafford" /&gt;
              &lt;f:selectItem itemValue="Stoke" itemLabel="Stoke" /&gt;
              &lt;f:selectItem itemValue="Hastings" itemLabel="Hastings" /&gt;
          &lt;/h:selectOneMenu&gt;
      &lt;/h:form&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>My backing bean code is </p>
  
  <pre><code>public class UserBean
  {
          private String Chosen_Cinema;
  
          public void setChosen_Cinema(String Cinema)
          {
              Chosen_Cinema = Cinema;
          }                
          public String getChosen_Cinema()
          {
              return Chosen_Cinema;
          }
  }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I set a breakpoint on the set method but it never triggers.</p>
