[S1] how to get a scrollable checkbox list

[Lalchandra Rampersaud <lr...@ceis.cujae.edu.cu>]

hello all,
i was wondering if it is possible at all to get checkboxes into a select in struts...
any help would be appreciated.

here is a sample code that i used although it did not work the way i wanted it to.  the checkboxes are being placed outside of the select component.

<html:select multiple="true" property="compatibles" size="5" style="width: 280px">
     <html:option value="009"> <html:checkbox property="xxx">dada</html:checkbox> </html:option>
    <html:option value="007"> <html:checkbox property="xxx">dada</html:checkbox> </html:option>
    <html:option value="005"> <html:checkbox property="xxx">dada</html:checkbox> </html:option>
</html:select>

best regards
ravi

AFAIK there's no way to get complicated HTML into a standard HTML select box; this doesn't have anything to do with Struts though.

You can (somewhat, anyway?) duplicate the effect with a scrollable DIV, although you'd have to handle most of the normal select semantics yourself. I'd be more likely to recommend any of several client-side JavaScript libraries that have already done the bulk of the work for you.
