I am trying to compare two values : one from session and anther from iterator
<s:iterator value="themes" status="currentRecord">
<s:if test="%{usertheme}) == %{themeName}">
<td align="center" bgcolor="red">
</s:if>
<s:else>
<td align="center" bgcolor="green">
</s:else>
</s:iterator>
But I am unable to compare my values, please can you tell me where I am doing mistakes ?
%{}
should be put (if necessary) around all the statement, not in the middle.
For Strings you should use .equals
, .equalsIgnoreCase
, .contains
, .indexOf
etc... Not ==
.
Change to this:
<s:iterator value="themes" status="currentRecord">
<s:if test="%{#session.usertheme.equalsIgnoreCase(themeName)}">
<td align="center" bgcolor="red">
</s:if>
<s:else>
<td align="center" bgcolor="yellow">
</s:else>
....
this works too:
<s:if test="#session.usertheme.equalsIgnoreCase(themeName)">
(Not an answer, but two suggestions, and I needed formatting; Andrea's answer is correct.)
For the sanity of yourself and those that follow, turn that chunk of JSP into a single line:
<s:iterator value="themes">
<tr>
<s:set var="currTheme" value="%{userTheme == themeName ? 'red' : 'green'}"/>
<td bgcolor="${currTheme}">Cell content</td>
</tr>
</s:iterator>
Consider using theme-named CSS instead of inline CSS and avoid it completely, roughly:
td.theme1 {
background-color: red;
}
td.theme2 {
background-color: green;
}
td.theme3 {
background-color: #daa520;
}
(Assuming themes named "theme1", "theme2", "theme3", but that's not relevant.)
<table class="themed-table">
<s:iterator value="themes">
<tr>
<td class="${themeName}">Cell content</td>
</tr>
</s:iterator>
</table>
It'd be nicer to move the style info "up" a level, e.g., table.theme1 td
, but you get the idea. Doing so allows a lot of flexibility in where the theme info comes from and so on.
<!--name attribute inside select tag must be a variable in action class with getter/setter -->
<!-- test variable sets the value of selected item in action class -->
<select name="test">
<!-- name attribute could be anything you want but value attribute must be a model class variable-->
<s:set name="lead_string_LS_ID" value="MasterDataModel.string_LS_ID" />
<!-- value attribute must be a list to iterate, status (an instanceof IteratorStatus will be pushed into stack upon each iteration)or result -->
<!-- var Name used to reference the value pushed into the Value Stack (my list contain leadSource_String_Id)-->
<s:iterator value="leadSource_list" status="result" var="leadSource_String_Id">
<!--#lead_string_LS_ID is value taken from <set> tag above. Note # must be in-front of the name

<s:if test='(#lead_string_LS_ID.equals(leadSource_String_Id))'>
<option value="<s:property value='leadSource_String_Id'/>" selected="selected">
