Subject: Re: List box and database tables
I would use the jstl iterator tags as in something like:
<SELECT name="theListBox">
<c:forEach items="${aList.or.hashmap.from.the.database}" var="item">
<OPTION value="<c:out value='${item.key}'/>">
<c:out value='${item.value}'/>
</forEach>
</SELECT>
Likewise you can set the value of a text box using the c:out tag as in
<INPUT type="text" name="firstnameorwhatever"
value="<c:out value='${objectEncapsulatingData.firstname}'/>" >
the objectEncapsulatingData is a javabean which gets the data from the
database and has a getFirstname method...
hope this helps...
