problems with dropdownmenu

[Jakob B <co...@hotmail.com>]

I want to make a dropdownmenu, with persons names from a database:

#set ($Persons = $test.getAllStateflow()) --- gets a List from a peerclass 
with data(name, age, adress)

<p>name:<br>
<select name="name">

#foreach( $array in $Persons )
#indexedRows($velocityCount)
<option>$array.getName</option>
#end

?

Jakob, questions like this are best directed to the users list.

#indexedRows()?  Isn't that macro from Scarab
<http://scarab.tigris.org/>?  And doesn't it generate <tr>'s, which are
inappropriate inside a <select> widget?

You'll need to close your </select>.  You'd need to either:

1) Include the parens when calling the getName method:
   <option>$array.getName()</option>

or...

2) Use the method name in a JavaBean-like fashion:
  <option>$array.Name</option>
