Matt, I'ld like to see Ed's paging API broken into more layers; separate paging functionality from HTML generation.
I've already tweaked the code a little to provide the ability to publish the current page and page size to any hyperlinked column so that after viewing the details, you can jump back to the same page of results with the same number of items per page being displayed. robert > -----Original Message----- > From: Matt Raible [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Thursday, January 23, 2003 12:05 AM > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: The <display:*> tag library > > > Below is a proposal I posted on my website tonight > (http://tinyurl.com/4s3j): > ---- > > If you need a slick JSP Tag Library for sorting and paging data, the > display tag library is a great library to use.
