Hi Paul, Your question seems very similar to my post last week. "I need to set a "pre-defined" option in <html:select> using the >>"value=" attribute, I thought the following will work: " For this you can set the attribute in your form class and when you use <html:select>in your jsp, while populating the options in the drop down, struts will automatically select the dafult predetermined option and show it as selected. (See vincent and robert's posts). Let me know if that helps!
(I did try the same logic and when i give system.out in my jsp, it is identifying the correct default value-only that I cant see the option selected.let me know if yours works from these hints. That would help me too) :-))) Thanks, Sam. "Au-Yeung, Stella H" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: I see. I'll try that tomorrow and let you know.
