I followed the example previously given by Ted, allowing me to fill an options tag from a database, use helper classes. I have a situation where two select/option tags are filled from the same bean call. The following code is just under my type="java.util.Collection"/> type="java.util.Collection"/> below I have the following: Specialty #1 labelProperty="label"/> Specialty #2 labelProperty="label"/> I need to differentiate between Specialty#1 and Specialty#2. How can I do this? If I change the select property it tells me it cannot find t More>>

			

			

			type="java.util.Collection"/>
			

			

			type="java.util.Collection"/>

below I have the following:

			

			Specialty #1
			

			

			

			labelProperty="label"/>
			

			

			

			Specialty #2
			

			

			

			labelProperty="label"/>

I need to differentiate between Specialty#1 and Specialty#2. How can I do this? If I change the select property it tells me it cannot find the getter method. Must I have two different methods simply to allow me to pass two different pieces of information? If I leave it the way it is, I get two "spec" variables in my "GET".

HTML does allow parameters with duplicate name,
and Struts will captures those like any other property
if an array is used.


private String[] spec = {"",""};
public String[] getSpec() {
    return this.spec;
}
public void setSpec(String spec[]) {
    this.spec = spec;
}
