Checkboxlist Tag (Form Tag) Example

In this section, we are going to describe the checkboxlist tag. The checkboxlist tag is a UI tag that creates a series of checkboxes from a list. Setup is like <s:select /> or <s:radio />, but creates checkbox tags.

Add the following code snippet into the struts.xml file.
struts.xml

<action name="checkboxlistTag" class="net.roseindia.checkboxlistTag">
<result>/pages/uiTags/checkboxlistTag.jsp</result>
</action>

Create two lists in the action class and populate them with various items as shown in the "checkboxlistTag" class.

checkboxlistTag.java


package net.roseindia;

import com.opensymphony.xwork2.ActionSupport;

import java.util.*;



public class checkboxlistTag extends ActionSupport{

  

  private List fruits;

  private List animals;  

  public String execute()throws Exception{

  fruits = new ArrayList();

  fruits.add("Apple");

  fruits.add("Mango");

  fruits.add("Orange");

  fruits.add("Pine Apple");



  animals = new ArrayList();

  animals.add("Dog");

  animals.add("Elephant");

  animals.add("Ox");

  animals.add("Fox");

  return SUCCESS;



  }



  public List getFruits(){

  return fruits;

  }



  public List getAnimals(){

  return animals;

  }

}
