How to pre-select a select list?
Hi everybody,
I have a form for updating the user information in my application. This form
is loaded when I click on an "update" link in my user information table.
The update form includes: username, password, and email fields, followed by
a drop-down list of available user groups that the user can be part of (this
list is dynamically generated from a table in DB). I easily pre-populate the
text fields like this:
<html:text property="name" name="editinguser"/>
where "editinguser" is the name of the bean containing the user object
information, stored in the session.
My problem is that I don't know how to pre-select the related user group in
the combo-box. At present my code is:
<html:select property="groupid">
<html:options collection="allUserGroups" property="groupid"
labelProperty="groupname" />
</html:select>
where allUserGroups is the collection containing the group objects. Now how
can I make the groupid of "editinguser" be selected in allUserGroups
combo-box?
TIA.

What do you mean by 'I uuse struts 2 package...'? The Struts1 tags don't
work in Struts2 directly, so you may need to explain your setup in more
detail to resolve specific issues.
That said, to answer the original question: have you tried using the
same technique you did with the html:text tag? I.e. using both name and
property attributes in the html:select tag? The should, I think, give
you what you want.

Hi Volker,
I'm actually new to struts. I use struts 2 package but all my learning
resources including "struts for dummies" talk about struts 1, and I don't
know how can I use the new tags, that's why I use these struts 1 tags!
How this problem is solved in struts 1? I hope I would not be forced to
redesign all my work that's been done in struts 1.
Thanks.

Hi,
are you using struts1 ? This looks something strange to me.
Just use
<s:select name="role"
~ list="availableRoles"
~ cssClass="input"/>
If you have getter and setter vor role (getRole()/setRole()) in your
action class,
struts will populate (and select the proper entry) for you.
