This may be a little complicated to explain. Here is a some background info. I have a page that shows a list of clients (in an html table, not a form) for a user and a form that lets the user either edit information for and existing client (by selecting that client from the list) or add a new client. A lot of the values for the client are populated via <html:options> select lists using java.util.Collection classes containing LabelValue beans that I pass in with the request. When I store the user's input in my database, I store the "value" portion of the LabelValue bean. For example, the value portion of the LabelValue bean for client status of "New" is "1", which I store in the database as the integer 1.
The issue that I am having is when I pull the client information back from the database to make the list of clients for the user to select from, I pull back the integer 1 instead of the String "New" for client status. Is there any easy way to pull the corresponding label for 1 from the Collection that I pass in with the request so that I can display the label instead of the Value - sort of like a <bean:write> that selects a label from a Collection on LabelValue beans for a specific value? It would be much nicer to do that than to add fields to my form to hold the text representation of the currently selected option. Hope this makes sense.
