In order to use <html:select> and <html:options> you must put the
values you want to diaplay in a collection like
private static ArrayList monthDisplay=new ArrayList();
monthDisplay.add(new org.apache.struts.util.LabelValueBean( "Jan", "0" ));
monthDisplay.add(new org.apache.struts.util.LabelValueBean( "Feb", "1" ));
monthDisplay.add(new org.apache.struts.util.LabelValueBean( "Mar", "2" ));
then store the collection in request,session or application scope like
application.setAttribute("months",monthDisplay));
in the <html:select> option you call the property where you want to
store the result and in <html:options> you should name the collection
e.g.
<html:select property="myVO.someDate.month">
<html:options collection="months" property="value"
labelProperty="label" />
</html:select>
Struts will use the values that you have stored in the collection to
render the list. When you select one option, it will store the result
in myVO.someDate.month variable.
