Charlene: Thanks for the input. However, it didn't work. The html:radio tab requires the value tag, so it knows what value to assign the problem variable in the corresponding form bean (I got a compilation error). This is the whole problem, since I need to get this value from my org.alf.msq.data.Problem object.
Further, it is my understanding that the property attribute of the html:radio tag must point towards the appropriate parameter in the form bean. I suspect that for some reason the jsp compiler can't find my Problem.class file, which is why it can't appropriately cast this object. Also, since I can't correctly cast the object under any circumstances within the jsp, I don't think the problem is with the iterate tag. Thanks for your input, though. And if you have any ideas, I would appreciate them. thanks, Jeremy On Tue, 21 Jan 2003, Yan, Charlene wrote: > Does this work? > <logic:iterate name="problemArray" id="currentProb" scope="request"> > <bean:write name="currentProb" property="problemName"/> > </logic:iterate> > > If yes, make changes as the following: > <logic:iterate name="problemArray" id="currentProb" scope="request"> > <bean:write name="currentProb" property="problemName"/> > <html:radio name="currentProb" property="name" /> > </logic:iterate> > > Let me know if it works. > > Charlene > -----Original Message----- > From: Jeremy Cavagnolo [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Tuesday, January 21, 2003 2:41 PM > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: ClassCastException using type attribute with iterate tag > > > I wasn't exactly clear with what I am trying to do.
