Thanks, Laurie. that worked.

why is JSTL prefered over the logic tags? is there any doc I can read about the same?

Thanks.

Trying to use html:multibox with LabelValueBean.

Getting error doing the same.

<form-bean>
     <form-property name="Items" type="java.util.ArrayList[]"/>
<form-property name="SelectedItems" type="java.util.ArrayList[]"/>
</form-bean>



In prepare Action
...............
...............

LabelValueBean lblValueBean1 = new LabelValueBean("Visa1", "V1");
LabelValueBean lblValueBean2 = new LabelValueBean("MasterCard1", "M1");


 ArrayList misList = new ArrayList();
 misList.add(lblValueBean1);
 misList.add(lblValueBean2);

 ArrayList selectedList = new ArrayList();
 selectedList.add(lblValueBean1);

 form.set("Items", misList);
 form.set("SelectedItems", selectedList);
.....................
.


In JSP
............
..........
<logic:iterate id="item" property="Items">
   <html:multibox property="selectedItems">
         <bean:write name="item" property="value"/>
   </html:multibox>
         <bean:write name="item" property="label"/>
</logic:iterate>


not sure what's wrong in here.

For one thing, you've declared your form bean properties to be of type ArrayList[], but you're actually setting them with just ArrayList -- i.e. you're declaring an array of lists, but only supplying a single list. Don't know if that's the problem but it's definitely odd :-)

Also, would like to know if it's better to use the logicIterate or JSTL to loop thru the items as I am new to JSTL too.

In general the JSTL tags should be prefered over the Struts logic tags, though either will work fine in most cases.
