Question

I want to bind the value to dropdownlist, the value is retrieved from database.

I want the result supposed to be as below:

    <option value=Sick>Sick</option>                      
    <option value=Funeral>Funeral</option>                  
    <option value=Trip>Trip</option>                    
    <option value=Others>Others</option>             

But now I get the result as below :

  <option value=Others>Others</option>
  <option value=Others>Others</option>
  <option value=Others>Others</option>
  <option value=Others>Others</option>

Here is my java code :

while(rs.next()){
    le.setReason(rs.getString("lr_name"));
    arrLeave.add(le);
}
request.setAttribute("arrLeave", arrLeave);

Here is my JSP :

<c:forEach items="${arrLeave}" var="arrLeave">
<option value=${arrLeave.reason}>${arrLeave.reason}</option>
</c:forEach>

What is the problem ? thanks !

Answer 1

You have only a single le class instance, so will get n copies of whatever the last reason was.

Create a new instance for each row in the result set:

while (rs.next()) {
    arrLeave.add(new Leave(rs.getString("lr_name")));
}
