passing values of Select box from JSP to Action class thru form Bean

[saivemuri]

This is about jsp, beans with struts. The problem is, I am using one jsp which is containing some select boxes. I ll be populating the select boxes from DB thru beans and action class. It’s working properly. The problem is with the data insertion from JSP to DB. The case is, I have to add a new record (record is containing the select boxes data as fields). Now if I select any data from the ‘select’box, I have to capture that data thru ‘action class’ and then pass that to ‘form Bean’ so that I can update my DB with the new record. But what is happening is, I am unable to get the values of the ‘select box’ data from the JSP to action class thru form Bean. Can any one help me out with this? One more thing, I can’t use sessions in JSP. If any one can provide some examples in this regard, that will be of great use.

For single parameter you will use getParameter(java.lang.String name). If you look just few lines below this method in ServletRequest API you will see getParameterValues(java.lang.String name) to get multiple selection
