I guess the reason DynamicSelectionList doesn't have getItems() is that=20=

it's more "dynamic" than you expect :-).  DynamicSelectionList doesn't=20=

really "have" items at all.  It knows how to get the items from a=20
source and write them directly to a SAX stream, as it's called upon to=20=

do when the form is generated for display.

Ralph, if you think it would be really useful for this class to support=20=

getItems(), I suggest you post it as a feature request to JIRA; maybe=20
summarize your usage scenario to lend strength to the case... :-)

best regards,
