I know I've implemented paging a dozen different ways, and reducing to a tag of our own sounds like a good idea. Ditto with sorted tables. If you wanted to contribute the tags, the thing to do would be to file a CLA and open a JIRA ticket with the code attached,.

Hello, I've been working with webwork since June. My company migrated from a home-grown webframework to webwork and it has been a very good experience. I'm excited to see how struts2 can improve on an already top-notch framework. In the process of integrating webwork with our software, I implemented several UI tags that probably could be used on other projects. I wanted to get a feel for whether there was a desire to add these tags to the core struts project. Although there are other open source tags that implement this functionality, we leverage the template based nature of the UI tags very heavily and wanted tags that allowed us this type of customization. Pager - the pager tag is used to display a small pager display to allow pagination navigation. (e.g. << < 1 to 6 of 30 > >>) This is used on almost all the pages where we have lists of data. SortColumn - the sort column tag displays the column name, the current sort direction and is hyperlinked so that the sort direction/selected sort column can be changed (e.g. Name ^ or Name v) So, my question is: Is there any interest in adding these kinds of tags to the core struts tag library, or should these be separate? I would think there would be enough other projects out there that would need these types of tags to warrant it, however, I've been doing only database apps for the last 2 years, so my perspective may be skewed a bit.
