MArk, Thanks for the quick reply. Yes, I did try that tooIt shows me correctly (in System.out.println), my form's default value of completeName of " teacher" but on the jsp page/form bean, it shows the drop down sorted and not the selected value. Really donno what could be wrong...? Thanks in advance... -Sam
