TypeConveters are for Bean.Properties.

Have a look on Robert's sample page here

Thank you for your quick reply. But I followed this well-known thread and it is supposed to work just like others. However, it seems that I did something very wrong.

----
binder.loadAll(); (It happens here)
Thank you.

Hi, Thank you as1225 . YEs , I do use ZK 5 . <listbox id="lbActiveSite" checkmark="true"
rows="4" model="@{productWin$composer.availableSites}"
width="100%" multiple="true" selectedItems="@{productWin$composer.product.sites, converter= 'fi.uwasa.netmes.util.SelectedItemsConverter'}">

The bolded part is where I have problem. It is bean converter which convert my 'site' bean to ListItem.
As I followed this thread :Here. However, I faced SEVERE: >>org.zkoss.zk.ui.UiException: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: when I use binder.loadAll().
