EL Expression Used to Set a Style Attribute

Question

I want to change the Appearance of my selectOneListbox !
If a value in the list is named "ALL" it appears in red:
<af:selectOneListbox id="navList1" autoSubmit="true"
value="#{bindings.findRegionsByUserId1.inputValue}"
styleClass="listbox" size="10" valign="middle"
inlineStyle="#{bindings.findRegionsByUserId1.inputValue}
eq 'ALL'?'color:rgb(255,0,0);'):('color:rgb(255,0,0);')}"> <f:selectItems value="#{bindings.findRegionsByUserId1.items}"/>
</af:selectOneListbox>
but it doesn't it works.
What's wrong ?
thx

Ah, the sharing of code and ideas. I used to do that years ago when I stumbled onto a WTF.
But the fact of the matter is that your post is going to disappear off of the radar tomorrow and nobody performs research anymore (even if that is as simple as performing a Google search), so your effort was likely misspent. Better put this kind of stuff in a personal blog, not in a forum. If your work is in some way useful, people who know better will start to link to it in forum questions.Well, I don't have and will probably never have a personal blog. Even if I do, I do believe that this forum will last longer than my personal blog, and no one will probably even look at my personal blog even if I had one ( Who am I in the world of JSF compared to BalusC, Ed Burns, and yourself ? ). Thus, the people here can comment, criticise, improve, or even reject the idea altogether.
In any case, it was an idea where instead of specifying the components to execute / render via the execute and render attributes respectively, you actually want to say "execute / render all components ... EXCEPT these". Who knows, maybe someday we can have something like:
<f:ajax ... execute="@form[except='componentA componentB']" ... />Of course, the above is not a valid syntax ...
Seems like a reasonable ( and maybe common ?? ) thing that others would want to do.
