setting link inside logic:iterate

What I'm trying to do is create a list of items from an ArrayList in the
session.

My list is an Array list of objects. Here's the interface:

public interface SecurityMenuView {
	/**
	 * Returns the Struts Action for the given Menu item
	 * 
	 * @return
	 */
	String getAction();
	
	/**
	 * Returns the label for the given menu item.
	 * 
	 * @return
	 */
	String getLabel();
}

Now, this is what I'd like to do in my jsp (it obviously doesn't work..).

<logic:iterate id="link" name="userView.menuList">
	<li><html:link action="link.action"></li>
</logic:iterate>

So.. I'd like to set the action to the link element's "action" property.
Does anyone know a good way to do this? I've tried doing this too:

<logic:iterate id="link" name="userView" property="menuList">
	<li><a href='<bean:write name="link"
property="action"/>'><bean:write name="link" property="label"/></a> 
</logic:iterate>

but it means hard coding the path to the action (i.e., "/my-app/action.do".

Thanks.

Posted by Mark Lowe <ma...@talk21.com>.
<logic:iterate id="link" name="userView" property="menuList">
	<html:link page="<%= link.getAction() %>">
		<bean:write name="link" property="label" />
	</html:link>
</logic:iterate>

or

<c:forEach var="link" value="${userView.menuList}">
	<a href="<c:url value="${link.action}">
		<c:out value="${link.label}" />
	</a>
</c:forEach>

or

<c:forEach var="link" value="${userView.menuList}">
	<html-el:link page="${link.action}">
		<c:out value="${link.label}" />
	</html:link>
</c:forEach>

Cheers Mark
