I have noticed that the value attribute of the select
tag, which is said to be a run-time expression in the
struts tag documentation, does not seem to work that way.
I have the following select statement:
<html:select property="<%= OrganizationForm.PARENT_ORG_ID %>"
value="<%=OrganizationForm.PARENT_ORG_ID %>">
<html:options collection="<%= Constants.ORG_LIST %>"
property="<%= Constants.SELECT_VALUE %>"
labelProperty="<%= Constants.SELECT_LONG_NAME %>"/>
</html:select>
where I want to use the same variable to initialize the select statement,
and also to get set by the selected value after the user makes a selection.
This does not work. I always get the first item in the list. However,
if I substitute this:
<html:select property="<%= OrganizationForm.PARENT_ORG_ID %>" value="24">
<html:options collection="<%= Constants.ORG_LIST %>"
property="<%= Constants.SELECT_VALUE %>"
labelProperty="<%= Constants.SELECT_LONG_NAME %>"/>
</html:select>
where 24 is one of the valid ids, it correctly selects the option that
cooresponds to 24.
Am I doing something wrong, is this a bug in the tag, or perhaps
a bug in the documentation?
