Short answer: Yhere's nothing directly in displaytag for handling this.
Longer answer: You can use the implicit row object along with the BeanUtils
library to create these controls, something like:
<display:table name="myList" uid="myItem">
<display:column title="...">
<input type="checkbox" name="myList[${myItem.id}]"
value="${myItem.property}"/>
${myItem.property}
</display:column>
</display:table>
This assumes that the id of each row is the index of the row in the list.
This also works when the id is the key in a map, although it's less
straightforward.
Most satisfying answer: I think I have a little sandbox app that illustrates
this functionality. I created it when I was trying to figure out how to do
this myself. If I can find it, I'll post it somewhere. In the meantime, if
you try to implement this yourself, post any questions you might run into.
But the things that you want to do are entirely possible. I use both
checkboxes and select lists with displaytag all the time.
