struts html tag question

[Liz Brown]

<INPUT type=radio CHECKED value=radiobutton name=radiobutton1>
I want to convert the above using html struts tags? How to include the checked in below?

<html:radio property="nobackbill"/>

[Marc Peabody]

html:radio

[Liz Brown]

so is it correct if i say:
<html:radio value="on" property="getBill"/>

to get a checked radio button.
And where I don't need it checked, I will put the value="off"

Am i right?

[Jeanne Boyarsky]

Liz,
You are correct. Note that as written, the field in your form is "getBill". So you would have a getter called "getGetBill." I suspect, you want the radio button to be "bill" which maps to a getter called "getBill."

thanks.
i am facing another html tag problem.

I give text field as:
<html:text name="textfield" property="startDate"/>

I have given get and set method in the form.however, i can't see anything.

I get with plain html :
<INPUT size=50 name=textfield>

what may be wrong?

[santhoshkumar samala]

put just
<html:text property="startDate"/>
check whether u have given correct getmethod getStartDate()
and setStartDate()

[Liz Brown]

I have given it correctly but still same problem

[santhoshkumar samala]

go through following steps
1)check whether you have declared html taglib in your jsp i.e,
<%@ taglib uri="ur tag lib location" prefix="html" %>
2)check whether ur giving correct form name in struts-config.xml
3)check whether the action in jsp
<html:form action=""> is referring to correct path in struts config.

If everything is correct and still u face problem, please post ur jsp and struts-config and actionform

does the formname here has to be the formbean name object or any name here for the form?
