title: Dealing with <html:options>
body: <p>When loading the dropdowns dynamically using <code>&lt;html:options&gt;</code> in JSP, how do I select an option by default?</p>
  
  <p>Here is my code:</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;html:select property="menu" &gt;
      &lt;html:option value=""&gt;–SELECT–&lt;/html:option&gt;
      &lt;html:options collection="menuList" property="value" labelProperty="label" /&gt;
  &lt;/html:select&gt;
  </code></pre>
