I got a compilation errror after I changed to using <%= %>:

Here's my error:
cannot resolve symbol
probably occurred due to an error in
/app/fdd/shopWorkOrder/CreateShopWorkOrder.jsp line 92:
<html:select property="shopWorkOrder.engineerId"
value="<%=shopWorkOrder.engineerId%>">
My actual segment of JSP:
      <bean:define id="eList" name="ShopWorkOrderFormBean"
property="engineerList"/>
      <html:select property="shopWorkOrder.engineerId"
value="<%=shopWorkOrder.engineerId%>">
       <html:options collection="eList" name="ShopWorkOrderFormBean"
property="userId" labelproperty="commonName"/>
      </html:select>
engineerId is an attribute in the dataBean "shopWorkOrder".  Can't I
reference shopWorkOrder.engineerId  inside the <%= %>?
I want to compare value of "userId" in the collection with
"shopWorkOrder.engineerId".

Try something like this, 

<bean:define id="uList" name="UserFormBean" property="userList"/>
<bean;define id="person" name="person.id" /> <html:select
property="person.id" value="<%=person%>"> <html:options collection="uList"
name="UserFormBean" property="userId"
labelproperty="commonName"/></html:select>
The "value" attribute is RT-Exp, and not name of a bean.

Hi:
I need to set a "pre-defined" option in <html:select> using the "value="
attribute, I thought the following will work:
<bean:define id="uList" name="UserFormBean" property="userList"/>
<html:select property="person.id" value="person.id"> <html:options
collection="uList" name="UserFormBean" property="userId"
labelproperty="commonName"/></html:select>
I have a "person" bean.   I want to set the "selected"  option if
"person.id"  matches "userId" .   I thought the "value" attribute  is to be
compared with for marking an option selected.   But the above doesn't work.
It always set the 1st option to be the "selected" option .
Am I misunderstanding the use of "value="?
