How to set the selected value in an select rendered by optionsCollection

[Frank Schaare <Lo...@gmx.de>]

 I´ve got this select rendered with data from my applicationwide
formularBean:
 
<html:select property="testSelect" size="1" titleKey="label.Anrede.title">
  <html:optionsCollection name="fb" property="hmAnreden" label="value"
value="key"/>
</html:select>
 
 This renders a select like this:
<select ...>
 	<option>Mrs.</option>
 	<option>Mr.</option>
 	<option>Dr.</option>
 	.
 	.
</select>
 
 The formular fields in my JSP should be prefilled with data from my person
bean ("sb")
 which has a Title property, so sb.getTitle() returns 'Mr.' in this example.
 
 Is there any chance to tell the html:select renderer "hey, if sb.getTitle()
is = 'Mr.' write
  <select ...>
 	<option>Mrs.</option>
 	<option selectet>Mr.</option>
 	<option>Dr.</option>
 	.
 	.
 </select>" ???
 
 I tried this workaround:
<html:select property="testSelect" size="1" titleKey="label.Anrede.title">
  <html:option key="<%=sb.getTitle()%>" value="<%=sb.getTitle()%>" />
  <html:optionsCollection name="fb" property="hmAnreden" label="value"
value="key"/>
</html:select>

but it rendered:
<select ...>
 	<option>Mr.</option>
 	<option>Mrs.</option>
 	<option>Mr.</option>
 	<option>Dr.</option>
</select>

even if Validator returns to this page because of errors.

Do you have any solutions/suggestions/articels for me to solve this problem
?
