Hi,

I am using struts1.2.9

I have a jsp file that has two list boxes :

<html:form action="transfertoDB">
<html:select property="menu" size="10" >
<html

ption value="">--SELECT--</html

ption>
<html

ptions collection="menuList1" property="value" labelProperty="label" />
</html:select>

<html:select property="menu" size="10" >
<html

ption value="">--SELECT--</html

ption>
<html

ptions collection="menuList2" property="value" labelProperty="label" />
</html:select>
</html:form>

I have two questions :

1) I hard coded the size of the lists to 10,How to make the size dynamic?

2) I would like to transfer element between the two lists .

Thank you , your help is appreciated.

1) you can use a scriptlet to set the size.

2) I'd need to know more about when you want to move data between the 2 select boxes. If it needs to be done with out a trip back to your app server then you'll want to use javascript. If you want to return to your app server then you can use java code.

Anything worth doing well is worth doing poorly first. Just look at this tiny ad:
