This is all you need
<html:select property="testselect">
<html:options collection="COLLECTION" property="value"
labelProperty="label"/>
</html:select>
You can store your Collections in either the application/session/request/page
scope. Be careful which one you store it in and what names you use as the key
as the bean will check them all!!!!!!
property is the name you give to the select.
collection is any type of collection I use ArrayLists.
The objects in your collection must have a getValue method and a getLabel
method.
The name value is optional. Only use it if you want to dynamically set the
option in focus. The object who's key is "TESTSELECTOBJECT" in either the
application/session/request/page scope must have a getTestselect method. If the
value returned by getTestselect method matches a value in one of the options
that option will be in focus.
<html:select property="testselect" name="TESTSELECTOBJECT">
<html:options collection="COLLECTION" property="value"
labelProperty="label"/>
</html:select>

Dave.

Subject: html:select few doubts
Hi All!
I've never used this tag before and I'm not so good with taglibs then
please correct my mistakes if I commit any.
I got the following example in a recent thread here in this mailing list:
<html:select name="form" property="selectedOption">
<html:options name="form"
property="collectionOfOptionsValues"
labelName=" form" labelProperty="collectionOfOptionsForDisplay"/>
</html:select>
Ok, few things I could already understand, in the html:select tag there
are 2 properties(in this case I know) name and property; name is the form
name and property is a specic attribute in this form bean that is related
to this field;
In the html:options we have name that is the form bean name, property is
my collection, labelName is a field of my bean into the collection, and
labelProperty is the final html option's value and also a field of my
bean, right?;
does name in both tags can be directly found in any scope? I mean if my
form is either in request or session, is it going to be taken? or am I
missing something?
Property in the html:options tag can be any kind of Collection? can it be
java.util.ArrayList? Don't I need to tell the tag wich is the type of the
objects into the collection?
Do I need to use the <bean:define tag to have it working?
As you can see I'm a bit confused of this.
Help is appreciated, thanks regards ;-)
