Hi,
I believe you need to read the following link
http://www.jajakarta.org/struts/struts1.1/documentation/ja/target/userGuide/
printer/struts-html.html#options
This should give you an idea of what the attributes of html:options are.
Collection should be a set of java beans. Rules are clearly provided in the
above link.
I can give you an example using <html:optionsCollection>
<html:form action="Roles" method="post">
<table border="0" align="center" width="100%">
<tr>
<td>
<bean:message key="app.roleselection"/>
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td align="center">
<html:select style="width:180px" size="8" property="strRoleId">
<html:optionsCollection property="htUserRoles"
label="strDisplayName" value="strId"/>
</html:select>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
<html:submit/>
</html:form>
Regards,
Sanoj Antony

Subject: html:select / html:options
Hi Folks!
for several days I mess around with html:select and html:options.
I want to access a collection with names or numbers (just
java.lang.String). This collection is available in the session. For
testing I generated my own collection in the jsp
<%
java.util.Collection list = new java.util.ArrayList();
teilnehmerListe.add("name1");
teilnehmerListe.add("name2");
teilnehmerListe.add("name3");
session.setAttribute("myList", list);
%>
<html:form action="/myAction.do">
<html:select property="selectedItem">
<html:options collection="myList" />
</html:select>
<html:submit>OK</html:submit>
</html:form>
When I run this I get an IllegalArgumentException: no name specified
I found out that both "select" and "options" have an argument "name" so I
added some dummies "test1" and "test2" just to have it and get (as
expected) another error: no bean found by that name "test1".
What am I doing wrong? Can someone point me to the right direction?
Thanx and Regards,
Chris
