For the tag, your collection should be made up of a data bean that holds the information to display in the
list. As an example:



public class OptionBean {

private String value = "";

public void setValue( String value ) { this.value = value; }

public String getValue() { return value; }


private String label = "";

public void setLabel( String label ) { this.label = label; }

public String getLabel() { return label; }


public OptionBean() {} }



Populate a collection of these with what you want to display and store it in whatever scope you are using. Then code your
tag like such: .



The reset method only gets called when a form is submitted. That method is intended to clear out form values in
anticipation of having those values set from the request parameters.



To prepopulate a form, include the default values in the default constructor or instantiate your form in advance (in an
action is the way I do it), populate the default values, and store it in whatever scope you are going to use it in under the
same name you specified for the form in the struts-config.xml. -- HTH Ed
