Following the documentation, there are two ways to use the options taglib
taht renders a Collection of select option.
- First one : you use the 'collection' attribute in options tag(as
mentionned in struts-example) :
<%
java.util.ArrayList list = new java.util.ArrayList();
list.add(new org.apache.struts.webapp.example.LabelValueBean("IMAP Protocol", "imap"));
list.add(new org.apache.struts.webapp.example.LabelValueBean("POP3 Protocol", "pop3"));
pageContext.setAttribute("serverTypes", list);
%>
<html:select property="type">
<html:options collection="serverTypes" property="value" labelProperty="label"/>
</html:select>
Ok, this works fine.
- Second way of using options : you don't use 'collection' attribute but 'name' and 'property'
attributes instead, that refer to a bean and its
property.
This property is supposed to return a collection that will populate the select tag.
Actually, I don't know in this case what this collection should look like. Is it the same
as the one that we use in collection attribute (ie a
collection of LabelValueBean for example) ?
Can anyone show me an example of using options tag with name and property attributes ?
The point is that I've several select boxes in my page, and I would like to encapsulate all
the collections in one unique bean.
Thanks.
