I think you are referring to the auditListCollection implementation of html:optionsCollection example illustrated at
http://www.experts-exchange.com/Programming/Programming_Languages/Java/Q_21506596.html
where
Bean.Property.value MUST MATCH the VALUE of the selected option
The only part you have to be concerned with is that you must retrieve the 'bean' from auditListCollection via get("WhateverItemWasAdded")

in this case of the AuditSelectListItem if
auditListForm.selectedAudit.Value = "Audit G"
Then the last item added (Audit G) would be appear selected

I hope that helps you out

Martin,

the doc for <html:option> states...

I'm using <html:optionsCollection name="auditListCollection" label="label"
value="value" />, giving me a list of options. How to select one option from
this list (the first - always) is the question. I now have the first
(default, or selected option value) in a session attribute that this JSP can
get hold of. How to use that info? Or, does this have to be done at the
server in the Action class?

Rajasekhar,

If no option is SELECTED, then no default is specified. It does NOT default
to the first option in the list.

Doug

Doug-
If you want specific items (options) pre-selected for your select control
the doc for <html:option> states
If the value of the corresponding bean property matches the specified value,

this option will be marked selected

Hi,
       Do not use "selected" for any option. By default automatically,
the first option will be selected and your purpose will be solved.

Select first in Options list






I have a Select element with several Options making up a selection list.
The
Options are built dynamically from a database. After the list is built, I
want the first option in the list to be SELECTed. Every sample I've seen
assumes you know what's in the list and you know what option you want
selected, by name.

Any ideas on how to do this?

Doug
