Is it possible to use multiple params in the itemLabel of a form:select/form:option
I don't think so. Either have a getFullName() getter in your object returning the concatenation of last and first names, or display the options one by one, in a loop:
<form:select id="userSelect" name="userId" path="user.id"> <option value="">Select to Edit</option> <c:forEach var="theUser" items="${user.userList}"> <form:option value="${theUser.id}"><c:out value="${theUser.lastname} ${theUser.firstname}"/></form:option> </c:forEach></form:select>With concatenation performed by user.getFullName():
<form:select path="user" items="${user.userList}" itemValue="id" itemLabel="fullName"></form:select>
