Here is what I have

<h:form>
        <h:selectOneMenu value="#{userBean.chosen_Cinema}">
            <f:selectItem itemValue="#{null}" itemLabel="Cinemas Available" />
            <f:selectItem itemValue="Stafford" itemLabel="Stafford" />
            <f:selectItem itemValue="Stoke" itemLabel="Stoke" />
            <f:selectItem itemValue="Hastings" itemLabel="Hastings" />
        </h:selectOneMenu>
    </h:form>

My backing bean code is

public class UserBean
{
        private String Chosen_Cinema;

        public void setChosen_Cinema(String Cinema)
        {
            Chosen_Cinema = Cinema;
        }                
        public String getChosen_Cinema()
        {
            return Chosen_Cinema;
        }
}

I set a breakpoint on the set method but it never triggers.

Where are you submitting the form..?? – BalusC Jan 14 '16 at 20:35
public String confirmbooking() { return "confirmbooking"; } @BalusC – Matt Richardson Jan 14 '16 at 22:25
So, the submit button is in a different form than the input? – BalusC Jan 15 '16 at 07:22
So, you expected that all other forms in the same HTML document are also submitted when you submit one form? Which HTML tutorial/book/resource exactly gave you this misinformation? – BalusC Jan 15 '16 at 12:29
