I'm just learning here as well.....but that is what worked for me. I actually store
the vectors in a CollectionForm with the two vectors as members. I don't know if this
was the most graceful way to handle the problem, but it worked for me. I have
something like this:
I used a CollectionForm for the same purpose as you would like to. I have several
drop-down selections so I just create a CollectionForm object for each, and populate
the labels and values from my business object, which I'm sure you have done already.
also, for state management, the collectionForms are stored in a transaction to be
re-used during the same session. This way I can grab them for any action where I need
the same drop-down list.
public class CollectionForm implements Serializable {
private Vector labels;
private Vector values;
...
public class IncidentForm extends ActionForm implements Serializable {
public Vector getUnsafeLabels(){
return CollectionForm.getLabels();
}
public Vector getUnsafeValues(){
return CollectionForm.getValues();
}
...

That means we are keeping unsafeValues and unsafeLabels separately in our form-bean.
(Though they are related -- i think so)
What if these two are kept encapsulated in an object.

I used the following with vectors of unsafeValues and unsafeLabels in my incidentForm
bean.
<html:select name="incidentForm" property="selectedUnsafe" >
<html:option value=""> </html:option>
<html:options name="incidentForm" property="unsafeValues"
labelName="incidentForm"
labelProperty="unsafeLabels" />
</html:select></TD>

I have a vector of Objects of a class whose attributes are ID and Name.
This vector is set in the form bean.
I want to display that vector as a select/options field.
ID part will form the value and Name the displayable option.
How can this be done.
Thanx a lot.
