RTFM. You want filter="false". Also if you are using struts 1.1 you can use html:optionsCollection instead of html:options. You will find it much nicer. Specifically you will not have to declare you value and label. In either case you will want filter="false". - Dan --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
