Having answered the same questions a number of times on this list, I'm pulling together an FAQ for displaytag. Here's the questions I have thus far:
* I'm using Struts or Spring or some library where the action URI is not the same as the JSP page. But when I click a sort/paging/export link, the URL for that action is the JSP page and not the action, so the table loses its data. How do I get displaytag to link to the proper action? * How can I use displaytag to set the value of controls in a table and how can displaytag process user input from controls in a table? * How do I save the state of checkboxes, e.g. for selecting some items out of a whole list, across pages? * I am listing thousands or millions of items from a database query. How can I create a list with lazy fetches so that the list of items that must be handled in memory is limited only to those actually displayed? * How come my exported spreadsheet always looks the same in spite of the style sheet attached to my table? Any other suggestions? I'm sure there are questions that I don't really pay attention to since they're not in areas I've used that much (exporting, for example). I'm sure there are other questions that I just haven't thought of! Please reply directly to me off-list and I'll compile these into a FAQ and try to make that available very soon. -- Rick Herrick [EMAIL PROTECTED] Proud member of the reality-based community Never try to discourage thinking for you are sure to succeed.--Bertrand Russell ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?
