Struts is unable to identify bglist as a collection or Array or List or iterator. WHAT SHOULD I ASSIGN TO list ATTRIBUTE IN THE s:select TAG IN THE FILE welcome.jsp
What is wrong with the code please tell me in detail. If you could send me the correted version. WHY IS THE s:action Tag not working ?
This is the error i am getting
Apr 13, 2010 1:49:19 PM
org.apache.catalina.core.ApplicationDispatcher
