It's my first post on stackoverflow so I hope I won't make too many mistakes.
I've a problem with filling Java List and sending it to aui:select as options. My goal is to fill aui:select dynamically whenever one of their options is changed. For example: if you change first select item (county), second and third items (community and city respectively) are emptied and then filled with data dependent on selected county.
I've come to a conclusion that whenever there's a "mvcPath" parameter in Query String Parameters this code basically copies code from the whole page. This code works well whenever there's no "mvcPath" though. Sadly, I need this parameter to change pages (from search results to selected result details).
