I set up what you suggested:
<html:select property="addchosencourseids" size="1">
<logic:iterate id="courses" name="availablecourses">
<bean:define id="courseid" name="courses" property="oekoid"/>
<html:option value="<%= courseid %>">
<bean:write name="courseid"/><bean:write name="courses"
property="name"/>
</html:option>
</logic:iterate>
</html:select>
instead of this:
<html:select multiple="true" size="10" property="addchosencourseids">
<html:options collection="availablecourses" labelProperty="displayLabel"
property="courseinstanceid" />
</html:select>
and I get this error:

Am I missing something?

Heather,
What exactly do you mean by "doesn't work"? Is an exception thrown? Is the
output rendered incorrectly?
