Is there someway we can do the same thing, without making a server call on every change event of the first select control ? Again, we want to make minimal use of JavaScript.

The "Onchange" event will trigger the Submission to another action which then keeps the collection in request/session scope and select Box B is then populated ..See the code below .. <script> function callAction(){ document.forms[0].action = "<%=request.getContextPath()%>/populateAction.do"; document.forms[0].submit(); } <script> <html:select property="A" onchange="callAction();"> <html:options collection="collection1" name="Form" property="value" labelProperty="label" /> </html:select> <html:select property="B" > <html:options collection="collection.areas" name="Form" property="value" labelProperty="label" /> </html:select> -----Original Message----- From: Andrew Hill [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, November 06, 2003 4:39 PM To: Struts Users Mailing List Subject: RE: dynamically populating options in form Well at the least you would probably want to use some javascript to trigger the submission of the form onchange of the first select so that you can populate the second select based on the first's value over on the server side and then redisplay the form. To do it without any javascript you would need to use a second submit button to do this, which the user would need to click after having entered a value in the first field. -----Original Message----- From: Anindito De [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, 6 November 2003 19:00 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: dynamically populating options in form Hi, We have two select boxes in an HTML form. Based on the option that the user selects in the first box and some other considerations, the contents in the second box get populated. Are there any reasonable means of doing this in struts with minimal use of JavaScript ?
