This looks good to me. Fabrizio - should we create a branch in CVS for 1.1 - then we can start adding patches for folks w/o impacting 1.0?

Hi,

I just posted a patch for a new tag <display:subRow> in the issueTracker.
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php? func=detail&aid=1013562&group_id=73068&atid=536616

I'm a happy user of DisplayTag, but a new contributor.� This tag solves a pressing issue I've been facing, namely how to display multiple rows for a single record.� (for example, a main row of columnar data, followed by a row with a comment that spans multiple columns).� See the issue for an example, but to summarize, it works like this:


<display:table id="row">
� <display:column title="Name" property="name"/>
� <display:column title="Name" property="age"/>
� <display:column title="Name" property="grade"/>


� <display:subRow>
����� <td colspan="3">
��������� <c:out value="${row.comment}"/>
����� </td>
� </display:subRow>

</display:table>

This displays a 3 colspan row below every main row.� By setting various attributes, you can control whether the row goes above or below the man row.� You can also set the CSS style (separate from the main row) allowing the elimination of internal borders.� (Making the multi-line record look like one contiguous row).

I was wondering if anyone had any comments on this approach.� I played with using TableDecorators to implement this, but found them unsuitable for a variety of reasons.� (the agony of including HTML in my Java code and�the lack of reusability).

If this patch is�accepted into the code base (presumably for post 1.0 version) I'd be happy to work on docs, examples, etc.


Best, WILL
