jsp get or geter method for specific html object

[Fred]

Hi all,

When using a request scoped beans it is possible to pick the value of
a field automaticaly from one page to another by using a tag similar
to the one below associated with a field

<input name="mail_shot_code_frames" type="text" value="
<jsp:getProperty name="CustomersDashboardBean"
property="mail_shot_code_frames"/>" size="40" maxlength="50">

and a get and set method coresponding to the name of the field in the
bean.

Are there similar mecanism to pick drop down boxes content, radio
button, buttons ect without having to use something like this in the
jsp page

String Button = request.getParameter("Button");

What do you guys use ?
