I have an arraylist for Strings eqArray.
I need to show it in a drop-down list for which I'm using the following in my JSP:
<%
for(int count=0;count<eqArray.size();count++){ %>
<option value="<%=eqArray.get(count)%>"><%=eqArray.get(count)%></option>
<%}
%>
I have an eqName String which is part of eqArray and should be the selected value by default.
How do I go about it without having to check and set the first option as eqName always?
<% for(int count=0; count<eqArray.size(); count++){ %>
<option value="<%= eqArray.get(count) %>" <%= (eqArray.get(count).equals("eqName"))?"selected":"" %> ><%= eqArray.get(count) %></option>
<%} %>
