Hi All,

I've made huge progress on this and I'm so close to a solution it's killing me!

I have a <display:table ..> tag that iterates over a list of beans 
(DriverShift) in the usual way.  Each of those beans has an attribute that is a 
treemap of nested beans (JourneySegment) which are used to build some 
additional (dynamic) columns in my table.  That much is 
working fine.

My final problem is that I want to produce a link in my dynamic column using a 
value from the JourneySegment bean.  I'm trying to do this 
using the paramId and paramName attributes of the <display:column ..> tag.  
I've googled and read extensively and spent hours on trial-
and-error, but I am having a problem getting my head around the interplay 
between OGNL and EL and I believe that's where my problem 
lies.

The following code illustrates where I'm at.  To make it a bit easier to 
follow, I've pruned out irrelevant "noise".  What I'm trying to do is to 
get the dynamic <display:column tag to produce a link url containing "?id=xxx" 
where the "xxx" value comes from my JourneySegment 
bean's deliveryId attribute as the value.

<display:table name="driversShifts" class="table" requestURI="" 
id="driversShifts" export="true" pagesize="25">
        <..>
        <%-- Iterate through the journeySegments if present and display a 
Product and ETA column for each --%>
        <s:if test="#attr.driversShifts.journeySegments != null && 
#attr.driversShifts.journeySegments.size() > 0">
                <s:iterator id="journeySegment" 
value="#attr.driversShifts.journeySegments.values()" status="rowStatus">
    <%-- expose the current column's deliveryId via a column-specific variable 
so <display:column can see it? --%>
                        <s:set name="deliveryIdParamName" 
value="'deliveryId_${driversShifts_rowNum}'"/>
                        <s:set name="#deliveryIdParamName" value="deliveryId"/>
                        <s:if test="product != null">
                                <display:column sortable="false" 
titleKey="delivery.product" href="editDelivery.html"  paramId="id" 
paramName="${deliveryIdParamName}">
                                        <s:property value="product"/><br />
                                        <s:property value="fromLocation"/> to 
<s:property value="toLocation"/>
                                        <!-- Delivery ID Param Name : 
<s:property value="#deliveryIdParamName"/> -->
                                        <!-- Delivery ID Param Value : 
<s:property value="${#deliveryIdParamName}" /> -->
                                </display:column>
                                <display:column sortable="false" 
titleKey="delivery.arrivalTime">
                                        <fmt:formatDate value="${eta}" 
pattern="${timePattern}"/><br />
                                        <s:property value="toLocation"/>
                                </display:column>
                        </s:if>
    <..>
    </s:iterator>
    </s:if>

What can I put in the <display:column ..> tag's paramName attribute so it can 
see my deliveryId variable's value?

TIA,
