I think this can be removed. In most applications, when the need for a static value arises, one uses a TableDecorator (check for permissions, some state of the current row object, something else).
BTW, a cool feature would be something like <display:column property="'Mr.' + firstName + ' ' + lastName"/> which would output Mr Fabrizio Gusta if the current row object contains a getFirstName() and getLastName(). This would then remove the need of the value attribute (<display:column property="'static value'"/>). Thoughts?

Yes, it's undocumented and useless at the moment: it only can be used to specify a static value, which can now be done using content in the column body. I'm thinking about directly removing it, instead of marking it as deprecated, since it seems it has been never documented and never used in the examples. This could help removing some clutter in the column tag... Any thoughts? Nobody ever used this attribute? fabrizio ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: SF.net Giveback Program.
