Have in mind that in selects tags, you have a value and a text, and the user sees the text, but the value is in fact the id, so if you shows the value with <bean:write name="orderForm" property="productId"> user will see the id and not the description. For this problem we use a tag that extends WriteTag and uses Providers (http://providers.sourceforge.net/) to show the description. And we use providers to populate the Select Options.
