According to your code, the default value is the String "null", not ---. You might want to try setting that to an empty value, e.g.
<html:option value="">---</html:option> (*Chris*) On 9/25/06, Heidy Gutiérrez Guzmán <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:

The code in the Validator form is private Long categoria; I tried to use the required validation, but that does'nt work, i think because the html:select have the "---" default value
