HELP! html:options with a hashmap

[Michael Lee <ml...@hotmail.com>]

I posted this before but haven't heard anything. Thought I would put up the error message too. What name do I put for name? The examples don't use a hashmap (seems logical for 'options'). When I put name it does the name and value. I want it to put the name under name and value under value, not both in the drop down.

I want to populate an <html:select> with data from a Map (HashMap). I have

...
<% pageContext.setAttribute("allUserRoles", Lookup.getData(Constant.USER.USER_ROLES)); %>
...
    <bean:message key="prompt.user.role"/>
    <html:select property="userRole" size="1">
      <html:options collection="allUserRoles"/>
    </html:select>

I don't see an example in the struts-exercise-taglib.war under html:select
It is vector or Object[].
Ideas?
thanks,
Mike
