Generating HTML menu (...) with ECS

[Diethelm Guallar, Gonzalo]

Hello,

I want to generate something like this using ECS:

  <select name="TYPE">
  <option value="S" selected>Standard
  <option value="T">Temporary
  <option value="F">Fixed
  </select>

I would like to be able to call:

  String[] display = { "Standard", "Temporary", "Fixed" };
  String[] value = { "S", "T", "F" };
  OutputMenu("TYPE", display, value, "S");

where OutputMenu is defined somewhat like this:

  public void OutputMenu(String name,
                         String[] display,
                         String[] value,
                         String selected)
  {
    Select menu = new Select(name);
    for (d in display, v in value) {  // yeah, pseudo-code
      menu.addElement(d, v);
    }

    menu.setSelected(selected);  // This method does NOT exist!
    System.out.println(menu.toString());
  }

Things I'm missing:

* Does the overall code above look correct?
* How do I specify the "selected" option for the menu?
* Comments, hints, etc.?

Thanks,
