Retrieving user selected values in drop down

Question

Hello
I am in trouble again
I am trying to set the user selected values in the dropdown list but whatever i tried i always either get the default values or just the last selceted value or the first selected value
Can anyone help please
heres the code
String values = request.getParameter("selectHeaders" + i++);
    while (values != null)
        selectedValues.add(values);
        values = request.getParameter("selectHeaders" + i++);
[INSIDE HTML]
<%
  for (int j = 0; j < headerList.size(); j++)
         String selectedHeaders = "selectHeaders" + j;
   %>
    <TD><%=headerList.get(j)%></TD>
    <TD><SELECT name="<%=selectedHeaders%>">
     <%
           for (int k = 0; k < sheetHeaders.size(); k++)
                   int m = 0;
                   int val = 0;
                   boolean isSelected = false;
                   if(selectedValues.size() != 0)
                        while((!isSelected) && (m < selectedValues.size()))
                                 String valueStr = selectedValues.get(m).toString();
                                  val = Integer.parseInt(valueStr);
                                 // logger.debug("THE USER SELCTED VALUE : " +val);
                                   // logger.debug("THE LOOP value k: " +k);
                                   if (val == k)
                                        isSelected = true;
                                    else
                                        m++;
                                } //end of while
                                logger.debug("THE BOOLEAN VALUE IS: "+isSelected);
                                %>
//this line is the one where all my confusion is
<OPTION <% if(isSelected) {%> selected <%}%> value = '<%=k%>'><%=sheetHeaders.get(k)%></OPTION>
                        <% } //end of if(isSelectedValues.size())
                        else { %>
                             <OPTION <% if (j == k) { %> selected <%}%> value="<%=k%>" ><%=sheetHeaders.get(k)%></OPTION>
                       <% } //end of else (selectedValues == 0)
                        } //end of for(k)
