I have started using displaytag for my new project, where sort, download, and paging are required. I was looking forward to use this scince I had your presentation in NY on Apr. I was so impressed the displaytag's functionalities, but also found missing functionalities for web application. To meet these requirements, I would like to propose enhancements for it. Here are the requirement I could not find in displaytag. 0: assumption is that scope is request. 1: the result collection contains entries only specified in page size, because it could be too many, so I don't want to construct entire result collection. (FYI, it's pretty slick to work with SQLMap) 2: the result count cannot be taken from result collection. 3: sort must be done by database, instead of manipulating the result collection. 4: export link should be at the top of the table. 5: page navigatoin must be dropdown list. 6: parameter named should not be encoded for the readability of codes. I would like to know why this encoded parameter name is necessary? Here is the proposal. To add above functions, I would like to introduce five attributes for display:table tag. 1: fullListSizeProperty: to handle requirement 1 and 2. 2: sortInDatabase: for the requirement 3 3: exportLinkAtTop: for the requirement 4 4: dropdownPageNav: for the the requirement 5 5: parameterPrefix: for the the requirement 6 Based on these additional attributes, the current functions are not infected at all, and modified code is so simple and very straightforward. To give you an idea, Here is the snippet of the jsp, <display:table name="OrderSearchPage.resultList" class="resulttable" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" export="true" sort="list" pagesize= "<%=OrderSearchPage.getPageSize()%>" requestURI="/orderinquiry/OrderSearchPage/searchOrder.do" dropdownPageNav="true" sortInDatabase="true" fullListSizeProperty="OrderSearchPage.resultCount" exportLinkAtTop="true" parameterPrefix="table"> and here is the snapshot of the result. I would really appreciate it, if you would review and consider attached patch in your future release. All the modificaiton start with "// TY start" and end with "// TY end", and there are 12 places in 4 classes. Oops, I cannot attch image here. Please let me know where I can post them. Thanks for your time to read my proposal, Tak Yoshida --------------------------------------------------------------------- JIRA INFORMATION: This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
