| 
| Am I missing something?Let me try to explain what I am trying to
| accomplish.I have a jsp page with a dropdown .I have a list of option
and
| only one of the option from that list has to be displayed as selected
.The
| selected option is not the same all the time.It depends on what gets
| pulled
| from the database.So how do i set the specific option as "selected"
| dynamically each time? I did not see any "selected" attribute with
either
| the <html:select> or the <html:option>.
| 
| I tried something like this in my jsp.
| <html:select name="device" property="deviceID" value='<bean:write
| name="device" property="deviceType">'>
| <html:option value="1">one</html:option>
| <html:option value="2">two</html:option>
| </html:select>
| 
| But the value attribute does not work.
| 
| Any help is highly appreciated.

| 
| That's because they usually end in "RTFM"
| 
| http://jakarta.apache.org/struts/doc-1.0.2/struts-html.html#options

| |
| | I did not see any which solves my problem.I have also gone through
the
| | sample jsp which comes with Struts. Since my selected option is not
| going
| | to
| | be the same all the time,I cannot set the value .It has to be
| dyanamic.I
| | have seen many people ask the same question but so far I have not
seen
| any
| | answer.

| | Yes.  At least 3 people in the last two days have asked this
question.
| |  It's a popular one.  Did you try searching the archive?  Google?
Oh
| | ... here's a fair one, I think:
| |
| |
|
http://www.mail-archive.com/struts-user@jakarta.apache.org/msg44110.html
| |
| | There are others:
| |
| | http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-
| | 8&q=Struts+Default+Option
| |
| | Google does wonderous magic with the mail archive.  I have no clue
how
| | it finds such relevant posts, but it does a beautiful job of doing
so.
| |
| | Hope that helps.
