If the <html:text value="" property="Id" readonly="true" /> field is on 
the same form as the <html:select> then the only way to populate is to 
use JavaScript. You can do this using an onchange listener on the 
html:select control.  This is not a Struts thing but a JavaScript thing.

I have the following:
<!--drop down of names -->
Please select a name:
<html:select property="Name">
    <html:options collection="AvailableNamesList" property="name" />
</html:select>
<!-- corresponding id -->
Your Id will be :
<html:text value="" property="Id" readonly="true" />
The collection AvailableNamesList contains objects that have two fields
- name and id. When
a user selects a name from the dropdown,  its corresponding id should be
displayed in the
<html:text> box.
How do I get it to look at the object in the AvailableNamesList whose
name was selected, retrieve
the id and populate the id property dynamically? I want to avoid a <% %>
section with
java code that iterates over the list and finds the object by looking at
the name. Is this possible?
If so, how?
Thanks,
SB
