Hi
I'm not a very experienced displaytag user, but I would try this:
1- Use a decorator (a wrapper Class):
<display:table decorator="CustomDecoratorClass" ... (among other parameters)>
<display:column property="customColumn"></display:column>
</display:table>
And inside the decorator:
//includes
class CustomDecoratorClass extends org.displaytag.decorator.TableDecorator{
//method to custom-build your column
public String getCustomColumn(){
//current object
Object obj = this.getCurrentRowObject();
String s = //wrap column content with HTML code here, for
example one <div> with overflow:auto or overflow:scroll
return s;
}
}
The only problem here is that displaytag would render one 'scroll' for
each cell of the column...you would have to figure out a way to wrap
just the column with the scrollbar not every cell... I would also try
to wrap all the <display:table/> tag with a <div
style="overflow:auto"/> for example, but this would result in a
scrollbar for the entire table...
I hope these suggestions help a little!

Ticones
