The problem is that Java and JSP have different interpretations of quoting
literal characters (single and double quotes):
* In JSP, you can use either kind of quotes for an
attribute value, as long as they match.
* In Java, single quotes are used for character literals,
and double quotes are used for strings.
So, the following would do what you want:
<html:select property="week" value='<%= request.getParameter("Week") %>'>
Note the use of single quotes around the attribute value for "value", so
that you can use double quotes inside the Java expression.
