Question

How can I do something similar the below in Facelets?

for(int i=0; i<=80; i++){
<f:selectItem  itemLabel=i itemValue=i />
}

I have combined both Java and Facelets code in my above code, but I want something like this to work in Facelets. I need the itemLabel and itemValue to be incremented, when the page is loaded. I need to display all values from 1 to 80 as dropdown options.

Is it possible to do so, or is there any other method to achieve the same?

Why don’t you use

<f:selectItems value="#{myBean.someList}" var="someVal"
     itemLabel="#{someVal.someLabel}" itemValue="#{someVal.someVal}" />

Where someList is a List of Objects…

Also , you should take a look at OmniFaces Showcase – Arrays , There are several examples you might find relevant

otherwise you can do it with c:forEach with <f:selectItem as proposed by @AurA
