using html:option tag
Hi All, I am using the html option tag embedded within the html select tag to select a value from a drop down list as follows: html:select property=title html:option value=MrMr/html:option html:option value=MrsMrs/html:option /html:select This works fine and I can save the correct value to the database. The question I have is how do I display the same option tag when updating the user and the details are returned from a database. So in plain English after the user has saved the client to the db he then wants to update the record. A search is done but how do I display on the JSP page the selected option with the option of seleting something else from the drop down list. Thanks in advance

From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] This works fine and I can save the correct value to the database. The question I have is how do I display the same option tag when updating the user and the details are returned from a database. The same JSP snippet you posted should work in both the 'add' and 'edit' forms. For select list contents that are the same for every user, I use a ServletContextListener to place collections in application scope, and then use html:options or html:optionsCollection. This avoids hard-coding the list of options. -- Wendy Smoak - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: using html:option tag
The html:select tag has an attribute value. http://struts.apache.org/userGuide/struts-html.html#select The value to compare with for marking an option selected.
