Arron -
Thanks for the reply. I finally opened up the <display/> tag code and
discovered that the default scope used is 'request'. What I ended up doing
was the following:
<nested:iterate property="list1">
<nested:iterate id="listItem" property="list2"> // expose
the current list item in page scope
<display:table name="pageScope.listItem.list3">
<display:column property="thing1"/>
....
</display:table>
</nested:iterate>
<nested:iterate>
This seems to work correctly. I'm now trying to move up one level of
iteration and nest list3 inside or a table for list2....
