It doesn't work because you must put the variable into the page scope:
<%
List myList = (List) someList;
pageContext.setAttribute("myList", myList);
%>
> If I have
>
> <%
> List myList = (List) someList;
> %>
>
> where someList is a list of objects whose name property I want to
> display in a dropdown,
> why doesn't the following work?
>
> <bean:define id="availableNames" name="myList" type="java.util.List" />
> <html:options collection="availableNames" property="name"/>
