But looks like ValueList tag actually uses ValueList Handler pattern
indicating from its name. Does displaytag use the same pattern? I just
wanted to go with the better one so that I don't want o switch to something
else later. I read the configuration part of displaytag and was thiking if
changing the default properties like color, format, position is easy? Also
can we have check boxes, dropdowns, editable fields as columns? 

Thanks again
Gnan

We use displaytag and it is dynamite.  It is fast and has lots of
features.  I haven't written one single TABLE since discovering it.  It
even allows you to specify a message to display when the list is empty;
saves you from having to put that logic in the page.

ValueList looked a bit more complex to use and there was so much vocal
support in the community for displaytag that we went that route.
