I've seen the "Bytes" issue when using the EL tag on Tomcat 5. You might try just using the regular tag on TC 5.

new but related question...

i've gone back to the simplest example, a list that contains several
objects.  if i try to get this to display using the column tags
(<displaytag:column property="desc" />) i get an exception that the
desc is not found.  desc is a String with a getter (getDesc) and a
setter (setDesc(String)) in my object.  i don't think i've done
anything different than the examples so i'm not sure why this doesn't
work.

i decided to take the column tags out and just use the
<displaytag:table name="tmpList" /> tag to display everything in my
list.  when i do this i get a table that is headed "Bytes" with binary
garbage as the values...
what do i do to get my attributes rendered?

thanks again,
andy

work. :)

thanks

Your original question was "...so
how do i get displaytag to extract my list of lists from my customer object?"
and I thought you were asking
how to pass in a list attribute to displayTag and I thought that the simple
answer would be using the proper dot notation e.g.


<display:table name="sessionScope.customer.group.items"
/>

But I guess I misunderstood. Assuming
you have a finite number of lists, why don't you just have a little scriptlet
that extracts each leaf-node collection into a temporary page or request
scope bean (tempList) and then pass these temp lists to displayTag?


However, assuming that this still doesn't
solve your problem, you may have to wrap displayTag in some scriptlet code
to iterate over your customers/groups, create requestScope beans and pass
the beans to displayTag.


HTH,

Dennis
