Hi, I have a select drop down which I want to set to a default selected option, based on the selected option. my code is as below. (from the jsp)
<html:select property="currentFullName"> <html:options collection="teacher" property="fullName"/> </html:select> My form class is as follows: TeacherDisplayForm.java: /** selected fullName */ private String currentFullName = null; public void reset(ActionMapping mapping, HttpServletRequest request) { String thisFullName = (String) request.getParameter("fullName"); if ((thisFullName != null) && !(thisFullName.equals(""))) { String fullName = (String) request.getParameter("fullName"); this.currentFullName = fullName; } if (getPage() == 0) { // } /** * @return */ public String getCurrentFullName() { return currentFullName; } /** * @param string */ public void setCurrentFullName(String string) { currentFullName = string; } my question is: how do i set the variable currentfullName to a appropriate value, pulled out from the request/session? becuase the setter doesnt take this("request") as an argument only the reset method has an input argument of 'request" Thanks much in advance! --------------------------------- Do you Yahoo!?
