[Struts Wiki] Update of "StrutsWidgets" by MichaelJouravlev

Dear Wiki user,

You have subscribed to a wiki page or wiki category on "Struts Wiki" for change notification.

The following page has been changed by MichaelJouravlev:
http://wiki.apache.org/struts/StrutsWidgets

New page:
=== HTML SELECT element ===

Use <html:select> tag to create HTML SELECT widget.

{{{
<html:select name="addressForm" property="currentStateCode" size="1">
 <html:optionsCollection name="stateList" value="stateCode" label="stateName"/>
</html:select>
}}}

HTML SELECT can be rendered either as dropdown box or as a listbox. To create a dropdown box set ''size'' less than 2 or do not specify ''size'' at all. To create a listbox specify ''size'' larger than 2.

<html:select> tag specifies current value:
   * ''name'' is the name of plain javabean or an ActionForm; optional
   * ''property'' is the property in the javabean that holds current value

<html:optionsCollection> specifies the collection that contains selectable items:
   * ''name'' is the collection name; it can be defined in any scope;
   * ''value'' specifies the property containing item value; corresponds to property from <html:select> tag
   * ''label'' specifies the property containing item label; this is what is shown to a user.
