Hi, I 'm wondering if someone can show me how to access an implicit object from my displaytag code in the java part of my jsp page, i.e. in between the <% and %> tags. I need to be able to access the object so I can search a database for the info and attach it to the end of a URL displayed in the table. Here is the code I have that is currently working: <% request.setAttribute("new_ncs_sc", new_ncs); %> <display:table name="requestScope.new_ncs_sc.rows" id="row"> <display:column property="sfdid" title="ID" sortable="true"/> <display:column title="Level" sortable="true"/> <display:column property="form_name" title="Form Name" sortable="true"/> <display:column title="System Coordinator" sortable="true"/> <display:column property="date_submitted" title="Date Submitted" sortable="true" decorator="teska.displaytag.LongDateWrapper"/> <display:column title="View"> <a href="../displayView.jsp?sfdid=<c:out value="${row.sfdid}"/>">View</a> </display:column> <display:column title="Take Action"> <a href="../displayMenu.jsp?sfdid=<c:out value="${row.sfdid}"/>&mcid=5">Take Action</a> </display:column> </display:table> I would then use this sfdid String to access and retrieve another value from my database returning another String called menuCategory that would be used in the url of the last column of my table as the value of mcid (currently this value is set to 5). I would like to be able to somehow access the <c:out value="${row.sfdid}"/> in a string. Something like: <% String sfdid = <c:out value="${row.sfdid}"/> String menuCategory = // use database to get needed info %> for example the last column may look something like: <display:column title="Take Action"> <a href="../displayMenu.jsp?sfdid=<c:out value="${row.sfdid}"/>&mcid=<%= menuCategory %>">Take Action</a> </display:column> Does anyone know if or how I could do this? Each row of the table has a different sfdid, and the menuCategory is dependent on it. Maybe I'm going about this in the wrong way, but I can't get anything to work.
