help with html:select andhtml:optionsCollection

2003-04-04 Thread Ted Husted 
With Struts 1.1, you should be able to do this:

html:select
html:options property=items/
/html:select
This should create a select list where the labels and the values are the
same.

help with html:select andhtml:optionsCollection

2003-04-03 Thread mohan 
I am completely new to the stuts and i am trying to display values from
the database using the html:select tag. I have a method called getItems
in a Form bean blah.java that returns a list of the items from the
database. Item is a database table that has different fields in it. I am
using Torque that generates the om classes for the database tables. I am
trying to put the values of a particular field from the database into the
html:select. Please help with this...

RE: help with html:select andhtml:optionsCollection

2003-04-03 Thread Jesse Vitrone 
This doesn't show how to use optionsCollection, but I this is how I solved a
similar problem with html:options.

I've got a Patient, who has an address.  The Address has a String state.
I've got a collection of States, which I want to have be a select, and I
want the default one to be the one who's value matches the state field on
the Address from my Patient.


jsp:useBean id=patient  scope=request  class=com.mycompany.Patient /
jsp:useBean id=states   scope=request  class=java.util.Collection /
bean:define id=address  name=patient   
property=homeAddress 
type=com.mycompany.Address/

html:select name=address property=state
html:options collection=states property=stateId
labelProperty=stateName/
/html:select


This works for me.  Note that 'property=state' and 'property=stateId'
match for one of the given beans in the collection.  So that one is my
default.

Hope this helps.
