When you render the element append the <strong>select</strong> attribute to the selected option</p> <p>eg: < option value="h" selected > India < / option ></p> <p><strong>UPDATE</strong> In the place where you display the dropdown you have to do some kind of validation where you need to check the <strong>selection</strong> value and what you are actually printing.</p> <pre><code>if(selected ==null || selected.equals('')){ //do regular printing of the dropdown as you do now }else{ out.print("<select>"); while(rs.next()){ if(rs.getString("VALUE").equals(selected )){ out.print("<option value=\""+rs.getString("VALUE")+"\" SELECTED >"+rs.getString("COUNTRY")+"</option>"); }else{ out.print("<option value=\""+rs.getString("VALUE")+"\" >"+rs.getString("COUNTRY")+"</option>"); } } out.print("</select>"); } </code></pre> <p>PS: The code is written on the fly and could need some exception handling or some typos may exist</p>
