UI Page - Jelly Script

[J P Rohini]

Hi All,

Am trying to set the option value as FY22 by default in fiscal year using jelly script.

I have used set tag, but it did not worked out:

Jelly script in UI page:

<j:while test "${jvar_gr.next()}">

<option value ="${jvar_gr.getValue('sys_id')}">${jvar_gr.getValue('name')}</option>

<j1: set var = "jvar_name" value="FY22"/>

</j:while>

Can anyone suggest me, how we can achieve this..

Any help is appreciated!

Thanks in advance!

Have you tried the solution in thread Urgent help need in Jquery script?

It seems to me you have the same problem.

Reading your post for me it seems like you're trying to have the HTML select element be set to "FY22" on first render. Is that correct?

If so then within the "j:while" loop is there a reason not to use a "j:if" statement along with using the "selected" attribute on the option element?

Note: The "selected" attribute on an option element can be used to create a default value for a select element.

Here's an example that should work based on your post:

<select>
<j:while test "${jvar_gr.next()}">
 <!-- check if the next item is the same as FY22 and set the selected attr if true -->
 <j:if test="${jvar_gr.getValue('name') == 'FY22'}">
   <option value ="${jvar_gr.getValue('sys_id')}"  selected="true" >${jvar_gr.getValue('name')}</option>
  </j:if>
  <!-- check if the next item is not the same as FY22, then only set option  -->
  <j:if test="${jvar_gr.getValue('name') != 'FY22'}">
   <option value ="${jvar_gr.getValue('sys_id')}">${jvar_gr.getValue('name')}</option>
  </j:if>
</j:while>
</select>
