Hi folks, I'm trying to get my head around using the select tag...
Basically to start with I need to produce a drop down that has three options. In HTML (as we all know!) it looks like this: <select name="active"> <option value=""></option> <option value="Y">Yes</option> <option value="N">No</option> </select> I've been able to get the following to work: <jsp:useBean id="opt" class="java.util.Hashtable"/> <% opt.put("", ""); opt.put("Yes", "Y"); opt.put("No", "N"); %> <input:select name='active' options='<%= opt %>' default=''/> What I'd like to know if it's possible to avoid having to load a Hashtable with the balues first? For example, I have tried <input:select name='active' options='{Yes=Y, No=N, =}' default=''/> but this generates an exception. The {Yes=Y, No=N, =} is generated when I merely put <%= opt %> in the body of the JSP. Am I missing something fundamental here? I would greatly appreciate some guideance. Thanks.
