Hello,<br />
Is there a JSP/jstl side way of creating a unique list/set on the fly.<br />
I have to pull a series of user names &nbsp;= &nbsp;job.jobModifier from a list<br />
and build a drop down with the results.<br />
The problem is that there will be duplicates.<br />
Is there a easy way of creating &nbsp;a set from the list and using it to build the select entries ?<br />
<br />
Thanks.<br />
<br />
&lt;td class=&quot;navWhite&quot; &nbsp;align=&quot;left&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;User&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/<wbr />td&gt;<br />
&lt;td align=&quot;left&quot;&gt;<br />
&lt;select name='userFilter' ID='userFilter' onchange=&quot;filerAllJobs();&quot;<wbr />&gt; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<br />
&lt;option VALUE=&gt;ALL&lt;/option&gt;<br />
&lt;c:forEach items=&quot;${jobList.jobList}&quot;<wbr /> var=&quot;job&quot; varStatus=&quot;status&quot; &gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<br />
&lt;option VALUE=&gt;${job.jobModifier}&lt;<wbr />/option&gt;<br />
&lt;c:set var=&quot;uniqueUsers&quot; value=&quot;${job.jobModifier}&quot;<wbr /> /&gt; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; <br />
&lt;/c:forEach&gt;<br />
&lt;/select&gt;<br />

Make unique select entries from duplicates in  list

JavaServer Pages (JSP) allow the development of dynamically generated web pages. It uses the Java programming language; JSP pages are translated into servlets at runtime, with each servlet being cached and reused until the JSP is modified. JSP allows Java code to be interleaved with static web markup content, so the resulting page can be compiled and executed on the server to deliver the content.

JScript is Microsoft's dialect of the ECMAScript standard that is used in Microsoft's Internet Explorer. JScript is implemented as an Active Scripting engine, so it can be "plugged in" to OLE Automation applications that support Active Scripting, such as Internet Explorer, Active Server Pages, and Windows Script Host. It also means such applications can use multiple Active Scripting languages, e.g., JScript, VBScript or PerlScript.

JavaScript is a dynamic, object-based language commonly used for client-side scripting in web browsers. Recently, server side JavaScript frameworks have also emerged. JavaScript runs on nearly every operating system and  in almost every mainstream web browser.
