populating two form properties at the same time?

hi all,
i am having a form in which a bean is instatiated(bean has 2 properties
"name" and "code").

i am using like this in the jsp:

<td><html:select property="item.code">
					
					<logic:iterate id="itemType"
	
name="<%=WebConstants.getItemTypeListName()%>">
						<option value='<bean:write
name="ItemType" property="code"/>'><bean:write
							name="ItemType"
property="name" /></option>						
					</logic:iterate>

						
				</html:select></td>
each "itemType" has "code" and "name".

here it takes the code value from "ItemType"  and populating property "code"
in item bean.

now i want to populate property "name" in the item bean(which should not be
shown on the screen.it should be a hidden field)

when the user clicks on the item name on the dropdown item beans "code" is
populating.now i need to populate "name" aswell at the sametime using hidden
property.

i need to use like this:

<input type="hidden" name="product.name" value="<bean:write
name="productType" property="name"/>">

but i dont know how and where?

any ideas?

regards and thanks in advance.

Unfortunately there's no way to generate a hidden input whose value 
corresponds to the selection the user makes in a select list (unless 
you're prepared to rely on client-side Javascript to set the hidden 
field value).

What you need to do instead is, in your action, lookup the name 
corresponding to the submitted code. You can put the looked up name into 
the form at that point if you need it there in your subsequent processing.
