Hi. I set up a little website as a way to teach myself Struts. It's a user-maintained directory of electric vehicle charging locations. It's hardly complete, but there was one thing I wanted to do and didn't see an obvious way.
Each Location has a bunch of user-supplied comments associated with it. My code currently displays all of the comments in reverse chronological order. What I'd really like to do is display only the first N such comments. Now, I'm pretty sure that I'm capable of making my own iterator tag(s) to do this, and the related action of iterating over the items N through M. I also realize that this will only work correctly for certain types of collection (Vectors, for example, or arrays), although I suspect it can be made to be repeatable for any type of collection. I guess I'm making a feature request, and looking for comments as to whether it's a good idea to add this functionality to the existing iterator tags or to create new tags to do it. Another related iterator action that I'd like to be able to perform is a more controlled iteration. I had a situation where I wanted to construct a string of items, separated by commas, but couldn't find an easy way to avoid an extra comma either at the end or beginning of the string. A set of tags to a) set up an iteration, b) get the current item, c) advance to the next item, and d) iterate over the remaining items would be useful, don't you think?
