This sounds like a solid idea to me. Also, I agree with Matt's suggestion of creating a displaytag-el.jar for the el enabled tag.

Well, my plans are to have a pluggable, user-configurable, expression evaluator.
In this way we can include an "old style" displaytag evaluator, an EL evaluator and, in future, maybe an OGNL evalutor. Users should be able to choose it in the properties file or to implement a custom evaluator...

I'm going to definitively kill this in the EL version of table tag... This means that the el tag will never work in replacement of the standard tag without at least replacing the sintax of the name attribute (usually a couple of {} will be enough to fix it).
Since al EL version has never been released, neither in beta, this is the right time to do it... I'm sorry for users who downloaded the snapshot waiting for a release with a similar implementation, but since I didn't see any comment on this absurd thing I'm pretty confident most people will not care about it.

Useful though it might be, I've been in contact with Matt Raible about using the OGNL expression and binding language (http://www.ognl.org) as a replacement for the expression language in displaytag instead of EL. OGNL supports extensions which make it a more robust EL than JSP EL.


Do you have any thoughts on this?
