Or... make the values static in the form. Therefore they will remain the
same for all revisits to the page after validation. The values can also be
repopulated at the start of the process as well.

Subject: Re: repopulating dropdown menus when validation errors occur

kurt,
I am putting the  list of values for the drop
down in the form bean as dynaform.set("userList",
list) in theaction class. (userList is a form property
here) but still not able to get the drop down
re-populated back when validation errors occur. 
What am I doing wrong here?

Thanks in advance.


Thanks,
Mallik
