Hi Samuel, letīs suppose in your form you have the method getArrayListValues() returning the ArrayList containing the values and the method getArrayListLabels() returning the ArrayList containing the values for each option you wanna render. Then:
<html:form action="data" focus="identification"> <html:text property="identification"/> <html:select property="selectedItem"> <!-- selectedItem must be a single-valued property --> <html:options property="arrayListValues" labelProperty="arrayListLabels"/> </html:select> </html:form> I think it will work, but you can try this too: (Iīm not sure it works) struts-config.xml <form-bean name="myForm" type="my.pkg.MyForm"/> in MyForm there is a method (getValuesAndLabels()) returning a collection containing beans holding the label (getLabel()) and value (getValue()) for each option. Then: <html:options collection="myForm.valuesAndLabels" property="value" labelProperty="label" />, or maybe: <html-el:options collection="${myForm.valuesAndLabels}" property="value" labelProperty="label"> Just thoughts, Henrique Viecili ----- Original Message ----- From: Samuel Rochas To: Struts Users Mailing List Sent: Thursday, May 27, 2004 6:58 PM Subject: <html:options> only with bean? Hello there, I am able to create a html select with struts when the collection to display in the options tag is a collection stored in the session or request and to use the selected value for my form. Fine. But now I have a Form representing a bean. This form has an attribute of type ArrayList. I'd like the select/options tag to show me the content of the ArrayList for the actual Form property value. I want to use the form attribute and not create a collection to store in a scope. My JSP looks like: <html:form action="data" focus="identification"> <html:text property="identification"/> <html:select property="selectedItems"> <html:options collections="allItems" property="id" labelProperty="description"/> </html:select> My form DataForm has the attributes identification, selectedItems and allItems. But it is not working. Anybody a hint?
