Example Illustrating the use of the Radio<html:radio> tag.
Here you will learn to use the Struts Html <html:radio> tag. 
We will cover an example that will show a working of<html:radio> tag.

Example code :
Creating Form Bean
Develop a simple Form Bean  class RadioTagActionForm.java

package ActionForm;

import javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest;
import org.apache.struts.action.ActionErrors;
import org.apache.struts.action.ActionMapping;
import org.apache.struts.action.ActionMessage;

public class RadioTagActionForm extends 
org.apache.struts.action.ActionForm{

  
  
  private String indian;
  
  private String american;
  
  public String getIndian() {
  return indian;
  }
  
  public void setIndian(String string) {
  indian = string;
  }
  public String getAmerican() {
  return american;
  }
  
  public void setAmerican(String string) {
  american = string;
  }
  
  public RadioTagActionForm() {
  super();
  
  }

}

Creating an Action Class :

Develop a simple action class RadioTagAction .java.


package action;

import ActionForm.RadioTagActionForm;
import javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest;
import javax.servlet.http.HttpServletResponse;

import org.apache.struts.action.Action;
import org.apache.struts.action.ActionForm;
import org.apache.struts.action.ActionMapping;
import org.apache.struts.action.ActionForward;

public class RadioTagAction extends Action {
 
 private final static String SUCCESS = "success";
  
 public ActionForward execute(ActionMapping mapping, ActionForm  form,
  HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response)
  throws Exception {
  
  if(form!=null){
  
 RadioTagActionForm radiaTagActionForm=(RadioTagActionForm)form;
 System.out.println("radiaTagActionForm"
+radiaTagActionForm.getAmerican
());
 }  
  return mapping.findForward(SUCCESS);
  
  }
}

Defining form Bean in struts-config.xml file :
Add the following entry in the struts-config.xml file for defining the form bean .
<form-bean name="RadioTagActionForm" type="ActionForm.RadioTagActionForm"/>

Developing the Action Mapping in the struts-config.xml
Here, Action mapping helps to select the Form Bean, Action Class etc, specific requests.

<action input="/" name="RadioTagActionForm" path="/RadioTagAction" 
  
scope="request" type="action.RadioTagAction" validate="false">

<forward name="success" path="/redioTagOutPut.jsp"/>

</action>
