Hi Gethsemani again,
you would like to fill a select with values and read selected
value in next jsp by a getParameter()?
I think if you use a dbforms select field, dbforms will choose a
field name. You could find it in source of generated
page, but i would not rely on it, maybe dbforms will use another
algorithm once for names.
Why not using a dbforms tag like
<db:dbForm tableName="COMMUNICATIONS_PARTNER" ...>
<db:header>
<select name="myselectname">
</db:header>
<db:body>
<option><db:dataLabel fieldName="SHORT_NAME"/>
</db:body>
<db:footer>
</select>
</db:footer>
</db:dbForm>
In called Page you then can read the chosen value by doing
<% String selectedValue = request.getParameter("myselectname");
....do something with value...
%>
Regards
Dirk
