Re: combo in jsp

Hi ,
I dont know whether u r using any framework or following any architecture. If u r not using any framework or CustomTags , u can adapt the procedure given below.

If u have a collection or an array of objects iterate them using a loop and add these values to a combobox.
You can write a Scriplet to do this.

for wg:- if you have an array names of size 10 i.e., names[10] then u can iterate u r array in this way

<%
for(int i=0,n=names.length[];i %>

<% = names[i] %>

<%
}
%>

thanks pramod!Though i got the solution that day itself, i forgot to write here!
But still too much thanks! Hope you will help me in other problems too(as i come across)!
