Thanks, Yes, there are 8 implicit varibales available in scriptlets. I also have a dilemma about this: I have to create a empty box when user is directed to this page. So, I use request.setAttribute("employees", employees) in action class to init a empty box. If I do this again in my scriptlet, when <html:options> tag look in page/request/session/application scope for the named collection, will that cause conflicts? Is there any easier way to init an empty box?
<html:select property="employee"> <html:options collection="employees" property="id" labelProperty="name"/> </html:select> regards, --- Wendy Smoak <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > I am not sure how I can get the > > selectedItem from the first box, send it through > > actionServlet->action class, get results from > > database, then use html:options to fill the second > > box.
