John I'm assuming I'm checking out the displaytag2 module from cvs correct?
Also where do I submit my diff file to once created?
Also I don't think it should be necessary to specify which order to
display... because if you want the property displayed you specify that and
leave the body blank. If you want the body you put something there and
specify the property (for sorting if you want). If you only want the body
you put something there and nothing in the property. And finally if you
dont want anything you leave both blank! =)
Thanks,
David
