Error description

• Description:
  
  The queryFilter.CUSTOM looks like this by default:
  ********************************************
    <!-- WSLET CODE=PTDataListBox -->
    <!-- PARAM NAME=CCM_USER_PROFILE  -->
    <!-- PARAM NAME=USER_LIST -->
    <!-- PARAM NAME=CCM_ONLOAD_DATA VALUE=USER_RESOLVERS -->
    <!-- PARAM NAME=JAVASCRIPT_IDENTIFIER VALUE=USER_RESOLVERS -->
  
    <!-- /WSLET -->
  
    // if the user doesn't have a personal resolver list, create
  an empty one
    if (!USER_RESOLVERS.resolvers)
    {
   USER_RESOLVERS.resolvers = [[getListboxDefaultValue(),
  getListboxDefaultValue()]];
  
  ********************************************
  
  
  Expanded version on the HTML page(On Change User Interface--
  when a user clicks the favorite users on an attribute of type
  CCM_USER ) looks like this if there is at least one favorite
  user defined:
  
  ********************************************
  
  var USER_RESOLVERS = new Object(); //LIST OF LISTBOXES
  USER_RESOLVERS['resolvers'] = new Array(); //LISTBOX
  USER_RESOLVERS.resolvers[0] = new Array(); //A LISTBOX ENTRY
  USER_RESOLVERS.resolvers[0][0] = unescape('Any'); //VALUE
  USER_RESOLVERS.resolvers[0][1] = unescape('Any'); //TEXT
  USER_RESOLVERS.resolvers[1] = new Array(); //A LISTBOX ENTRY
  USER_RESOLVERS.resolvers[1][0] = unescape('indpona'); //VALUE
  USER_RESOLVERS.resolvers[1][1] = unescape('Firstname
  Lastname%28indpona%29');
  //TEXT
  
  ********************************************
  
  Expanded version on HTML page looks like this if there are no
  favorite users present in the list:
  
  *************************************
  
  var USER_RESOLVERS = new Array();
  USER_RESOLVERS.readable_folders = [];
  USER_RESOLVERS.writable_folders = [];
  USER_RESOLVERS.folders = [];
  
  ******************************
  If the underlying list is empty, the PTDataListBox wslet creates
  incorrect code.
