ive got a little problem with html:options. in my form bean i have a method called getAllDirectories() which does some processing and returns a java.util.List of all the available directories. this works fine; struts picks up on the fact that it should look at the form bean for this collection. however, html:options doesnt seem to provide for this sort of setup: labelName and labelProperty both report that there's "no getter method available for property directoryName for bean under name null." when combining labelName and labelProperty along with property, there's a servletexception thrown ( "cannot find bean under name directoryName" ). looking at the source ( OptionsTag.java ), it seems to want everything nice and orderly, with both labelName and labelProperty being Collections used for the value and content of the <option> tag. is there an easy way to 'bind' ( sorry, im a WebObjects refugee ) two different properties of a bean to the option value and option content ? ideally, <html:options> would, given a collection, be able to use PropertyUtils ( kinda reminiscent of EOKeyValueCoding in NeXT's EOF, for those that care about these sort of things ) to get the labelName and labelProperty as its iterating through. was this the original intent ? --- Howie <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> URL: http://www.toodarkpark.org
