I want to select option in drop down on condition.
<s:set var="defaultState" value="customerBean.state"/>
<select onchange="reflect(this);" name="customerBean.state" class="form-control" id="state">
<option>Select</option>
<s:iterator value="stateList" var="statevalue">
<s:if test="%{#defaultState.equalsIgnoreCase(stateValue)}">
<option id="stateVal" selected="selected"><s:property value="statevalue"/></option>
</s:if>
<s:else>
<option id="stateVal"><s:property value="statevalue"/></option>
</s:else>
</s:iterator>
</select>
this does not work. But if I put
<s:if test="%{#defaultState.equalsIgnoreCase('Alabama')}">
this works.
Please help.
Have you checked that it is not a simple typo? In your code you are using stateValue
and statevalue
.
Beside that is stateList
a simple list or is it a list of beans? For the second option you have to use something like stateValue.value
.
Another option: Because it is an OGNL-Expression you could try also #statevalue
. But I'm never sure when to use with #
and when without.
Another option: use the struts tag s:select and to preselect the option use the value
attribute.
