validate struts dropdown list

[jagprg]

Hi,

I have a Struts custom tag (a drop down list) about 5 items in the list with the first just being blank.

I want to validate this using javascript but I dont know how to read/get its value in javascript.

any ideas ?

<TCS:doctypes noneallowed="true" />

the above is the tag with generates the list.

thanks

I'm not a Java developer by any means, but a quick search on Google for "struts select" gave this link right at the top:

http://struts.application-servers.com/doc/tags/select.html

It shows that you can use "name" to set a name on the element, which you can then read back by accessing the form element in the normal way.

If you require further help with the struts side of things, I'd ask in a struts / java / jsp forum. For the validation side, you'd need to provide client-side source and ask here.

Hope this helps,
Dan
