Here's a example I did :

<html:select property="offset" >
<html:optionsCollection label="date" name="DATE" value="value" property="dates" ></html:optionsCollection>
</html:select>


'DATE' is a bean which has a attribute called 'dates' which returns a (Vector) collection of beans. The beans in this collection consist of two attributes, date (String) and value (int).

Thus when rendering the select box, the date is used as the label, so to the user strings like '2003-08-05' will appear and the value attribute will be used to populate the value field for each label.

The tags above will render the html bellow:

<select name="offset"><option value="0" selected="selected">05-08-2003</option>
<option value="1">04-08-2003</option>

<option value="2">03-08-2003</option>
<option value="3">02-08-2003</option>
<option value="4">01-08-2003</option>
<option value="5">31-07-2003</option>
<option value="6">30-07-2003</option></select>

I attached this to a html:form tag, thus the bean which returns the collection ('DATE') is looked for in the same scope as the form (request in this case) .

Is it possible to display a vector containing a list of other objects in
the request object using htmltable?  I have tried reading the examples
in the v0.4 RC-1, but it is just far too complex for a newbie to follow.
Please kindly point me to a place where there are examples in using
vector, or even better, give me an example of the configuration files,
and may be some code?

Thanks

Andy
