Question

Well new to the java stuff and having trouble with assigning a class attribute to this SELECT options. wanted to know if the listClass is correct? What I’m trying to accomplish is to add a class attribute to the options of a SELECT drop down

What I have:

<select>
  <option value="volvo">Volvo</option>
  <option value="saab">Saab</option>
  <option value="mercedes">Mercedes</option>
  <option value="ford">F150</option>
</select>

What I would like:

<select>
  <option class="car" value="volvo">Volvo</option>
  <option class="car" value="saab">Saab</option>
  <option class="car" value="mercedes">Mercedes</option>
  <option class="truck" value="ford">F150</option>
</select>

Here is the JSP code:

<s:select id="theSelectId" 
   name="theDto.id" 
   value="#attr.theDto.field_id" 
   list="theDtoList" 
   listKey="field_id" 
   listValue="field_value"/>

Is there a listClass? or another way of pulling the values that I need?

I just did a quick check of the Struts tag lib API and it looks like the styleClass attribute for the Struts select tag will create a class attribute.
