I'd likely say that this is considered out-of-scope of what the library
is meant to do.

All you need to do is to create a form that allows the user to enter
their search criteria and submit it along with any other relevant pieces
of data for the search.  Your servlet call would then search the results
accordingly and return the results which are hits based on the criteria
and would only retrieve a page of records at a time.  This would not
impact your performance and would solve your problem.

If you want to use something that looks clean and robust without
redrawing the screen on each search, you can also hook in AJAX so that
you fire the search & paging back to the server in an AJAX call and
re-render a DIV with the AJAX results.

Subject: [displaytag-user] can we set search option in display tag


Hi,

Is it possible to set search option in Display Table. Ie in the text box
if I enter some text and enter only the matching string content should
be displayed with out refreshing the page. Like data table of jQuery. I
cant use data table as this will load all the records at a time. There
are thousands of records to be displayed which will deteriorate my
application performance.

--regards,
