Yowsa! Someone is listening. I've just got a bit of pressure on, which doesn't make it easier. I did actually get that far in the thought process, but several Actions can forward to this page, so can't I just do the stuff in a bean & a tag?
How about ditching the seperate bean & subclassing the iterator and calling up my data in the doStart? That means I don't have to pass in the request to the constructor because I've got the TagSupport methods. Or does this conflict with MVC in a big way? I mean I've got my data access class which just returns a rowset, all nice & seperate.
