Unable to view list in drop down menu - JSTL - urgent view requires Pls

Question

Hello,
I have the following code in my controller: Spring Framework, Hibernate with DAO is used to persist objects to DB.
view plaincopy to clipboardprint?
if((usacs.getRole().equals("salesperson")) && (usacs.getUsername().equals("sp")) && (usacs.getPassword().equals("sp")))
session.setAttribute("role", role);
myModel.put("useraccount", usacs);
session.setAttribute("useraccount", usacs);
List<UserAccount> cust = uads.getPersonsByRole("customer");
myModel.put("custList", cust);
return new ModelAndView("sploginp1", "sploginp1", myModel);
I am putting the user name and the list of person of role type customer into the model, myModel.
When I debug, I am able to see the customer names in custList.
But the names wont appear on screen in the drop down. Could someone please throw some light. I have been breaking my head for the last 16hrs on this.
This is my JSP code:
view plaincopy to clipboardprint?
Choose Customer to serve:
<select name="customer" >
<c:forEach items="${splogin1.custList}" var="c">
<option value="${c.userid}"><c:out value="${c.username}"/></option>
</c:forEach>
</select>
It shows me a empty drop down with no values in it.
This program, is able to fetch the data from database and populate the model with it. In debug mode , as mentioned earlier, I can see the customers names but i dont see them in my JSP page.
Can someone please help.
Thank You.

Yes, meant to pop that in the original post, Had a look in the per-location element. Nothing there either! It's disappeared from the site, but as I say a legacy Hyperlink stored in favourites
still brings it out - I can edit the page when I get there etc...
Apreciate you assistance BTW :-)
