http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=36626 Summary: input:select options has key and value reversed Product: Taglibs Version: unspecified Platform: Macintosh OS/Version: Mac OS X 10.3 Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: Input Taglib AssignedTo: [email protected] ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED] When using a LinkedHashMap to populate the <option> tags with the "options" parameter I expected the value in the key->value pair to appear between the <option> tags. Basically I would expect to see the longer, more descriptive, string appear in the pull down list. the <option value="key"> is where I would expect the HashMap's key to appear since this is the shorter, more concise string I will want to store and/or use in calculations. I know it is a bit of a misnomer, since the option tag calls it a "value" but what I would really like there is the item you are calling the "label" So if I was to pass in the following LinkedHashMap: LinkedHashMap map = new LinkedHashMap(3); map.put("1", "one"); map.put("2", "two"); map.put("3", "three"); <input:select name="number" options="<%= map %> /> I would expect it to generate the following HTML: <select> <option value="1">one</option> <option value="2">two</option> <option value="3">three</option> </select> If this is just a matter of opinion, it would be great to have a switch that allowed me to determine whether the value or the key gets displayed in the list with the other stored as the option value. The code that handles this seems to be in the Select.java file, the outputOption method around line 205. -- Configure bugmail: http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug, or are watching the assignee. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
