I want to display a dropdown list. The list items are "By First Name", "By
Last Name", "By Date". I think I can do it by the following way:

<html:select size=1 property="choice">
    <html:option value="fName"> By First Name </html:option>
    <html:option value="fName"> By Last Name </html:option>
    <html:option value="fName"> By Date </html:option>
</html:select>

Is there any disadvantages to use above approach compared with using
<html:options...>? If I use <html:options ... > instead of using above
individual <html:option...>,as following:

<html:select property="choice" size="1">
      <html:options collection="<%= myArrayList %>" property="value"
labelProperty="label"/>
</html:select>

where should I set myArrayList? in init method of my servlet class, or in my
action form bean, or somewhere else? I am not quite understand it. Could
some one please help me?

Thank you

Doug
