i think you are trying to do the following...

<html:select name="UserFormBean" property="userId">
        <html:options collection="uList" property="id" labelProperty="name"/>
</html:select>

this is assuming uList is a list of beans with id/name fields and your form has a userId field.

Hi:
I need to set a "pre-defined" option in <html:select> using the "value="
attribute, I thought the following will work:

<bean:define id="uList" name="UserFormBean" property="userList"/>
<html:select property="person.id" value="person.id">
<html:options collection="uList" name="UserFormBean" property="userId"
labelproperty="commonName"/></html:select>

I have a "person" bean.   I want to set the "selected"  option if
"person.id"  matches "userId" .   I thought the "value" attribute  is to be
compared with for marking an option selected.   But the above doesn't work.
It always set the 1st option to be the "selected" option .
Am I misunderstanding the use of "value="?
