来自表单选择菜单的数据从jsf / html表单作为null传递

Question

我目前难以传递当用户选择一个选择项并单击“提交”按钮时填充的操作变量的值，应将其写入日志中，并且不返回空值

Value passed using FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().getExternalContext().getRequestParameterMap(); is returning as null, when the first xhtml form is submited

the objective is to pass the value of a selected selection menu from XHTML form1  to XHRML form2 using a managed bean method on the click of a submit button on form1
