I seek to use the tag < display:table > with an aim of offering the sorting
by column header. I would wish to know if there is no disavantage to use 
< display:table> rather than basic tag HTML. 
In the display library examples JSP source combine table tag and
display:table tag. Why doesn't one use only display:table? 
The list of the display:table and display:column
attributes are available in the display.tld file but is there an explanation
in the form textual of these attributes ?the tld file is not detailed and I
have some difficulties to modify my JSP page to use <display:*> tags.

Can we combine < display:tag > with struts <logic:iterate> tag ?

How can I modify the following code to use <display:*> tags ?

<table width="100%" border="1" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"
bordercolor="#FFFFFF">

<%-- Title for the columns of the table --%>
<tr bgcolor="#FFCC00">
    <th align=left width="13%"><bean:message key="label.id"/></th>
    <th align=left width="5%"><bean:message  key="label.name"/></th>
    <th align=left width="9%"><bean:message key="label.type"/></th>
</tr>

<logic:iterate id="elements" name="list" type="myappli.myClass"
offset="offset" length="length">
<tr bgcolor="#EBEBEB">
    <td bgcolor="#EBEBEB" width="13%"> 
        <html:link href="action.do">
        <bean:write name="elements" property="id"/>
        </html:link>
    </td>

    <td bgcolor="#EBEBEB" width="5%"> 
        <bean:write name="elements" property="name"/>
    </td>

    <td bgcolor="#EBEBEB" width="10%">
      <html:checkbox name="elements" property="type" value="on"/>
    </td>
</tr>
</logic:iterate>
</table>

Least help would be appreciated. 
Thanks 
Sandra
