How to display combination of two columns in label of html:option

[di...@jpmorgan.com]

In my jsp I am using users ArrayList which is collection of User bean on 
server side.
My drop down list works fine as under when I use only one display userNameShort in my example.


                <html:select property="userIdNew">
                        <option value="-1">Choose User...</option>
                        <html:options collection="users" property="userId" 
labelProperty="userNameShort" />\
            </html:select>

Now I want to combine two attributes concatenation in label for e.g. 
userId+"("+userNameShort"+")"

how would I do that ?

Thanks..

Create a read-only property in the User bean that returns
userId+"("+userNameShort"+")". For example:

public class User ... {
  ...
  public String getUserIdAndName() {
    return userId+"("+userNameShort"+")";
  }
}

<html:select property="userIdNew">
  <option value="-1">Choose User...</option>
  <html:options collection="users"
                property="userId"
                labelProperty="userIdAndName" />
</html:select>

I don't use the html:options tag but standard jstl with html:option....

<html:select property="userIdNew">
<option value="-1">Choose User...</option>
<c:forEach items="${users}" var="user">
    <html:option value="${user.userId}">
        <c:out value="${user.userId}"/>(<c:out value="${user.userNameShort
}"/>)
    </html:option>
</c:forEach>
</html:select>
