I'm not if this has ben pointed out before (way too much email at the moment)
but I find that the <html:options> tag has some discrepency in the collection
attribute. At the moment I do this:
<% pageContext.setAttribute("catalog", ((SystemManager)
application.getAttribute(SystemManager.THIS)).getCatalog("skill_catalog_user_years").entrySet());
%>
<html:select property="<%= \"skillTree.skill[\" + ((SkillEntry) ((Map.Entry)
entry).getValue()).getParentId() + \"].entry[\" + ((SkillEntry) ((Map.Entry)
entry).getValue()).getSkillId() + \"].years\" %>">
<html:options collection="catalog" property="value.id"
labelProperty="value.description"/>
</html:select>
Sorry about the long property value, I have fairly heavily nested structures at the
moment,
(A subject for a longer email).
I would expect the html:options collection to be more like the logic:iterate
collection and
take something like
<html:options collection="<%= some collection here %>" property="value.id"
labelProperty="value.description"/>
so I didn't have to set a pageContext as I do now before the html:select tag.
Any comments?
