You can create a bean using LabelValueBean in which the label will be male,
female and the value will be 1, 2. In your jsp you do the following
<html:select property="form-property-name" >
<html:optionsCollection name="bean-name" value="value" label="label"
/>
</html:select>
On submit, your form-property-name will have the values 1 or 2 depending on
the selection.

Subject: Any way to retrieve the index of html:select?
I was wondering if there is any way to retrieve the selection index of
the <html:select> during the action. The value that I'm storing is the
coded value for the description that it represents (e.g. 1 for male, 2
for female). Instead of taking the value and hitting the database, I
would like to take the selection index and use that to pull the
information out of a List that is stored as a session variable.
