Thought I'd follow up on this one since there was more to it. The radio
buttons were actually *all* getting "checked".
<input type="radio" name="key" value="0123456" checked="checked">
Apparently radio buttons are meant to display a pre-defined set of choices,
and the <html:radio> tag will pre-select one of them based on a property of
a bean. What I need is the ability to display a set of choices that I don't
know until right before the page is displayed.
I've got a Collection [foundPersons] of [ResolutionView] beans I'm iterating
through, doing one radio button *per bean*.
I ended up defining a getResolutionKey() method in my bean. It just returns
an empty String, which keeps the <html:radio> tag from selecting every
single radio button. (Of course the browser only showed the final one
selected, but I don't want *any* of them pre-selected.)
So now I have:
<logic:iterate id="resView" name="foundPersons"
type="edu.asu.vpia.value.ResolutionView">
<html:radio name="resView" property="resolutionKey"
value="<%=resView.getKey()%>"/>
<bean:write name="resView" property="key" filter="true"/>
And I get:
<input type="radio" name="resolutionKey" value="0143062"> 0143062
I think that's the best I can do at present, although I'll probably try to
get rid of the scriptlet one day.
