I agree totally, but this doesn't help much with this question too much. I'm using a ListDataModel just to display the stuff in the the table since everyone seemed to agree that using DataModel and getting out the selected row is better than my initial plan to simply pass the "id/primary key" from a commandLink on the row you want to click on. Zhong, I'm confused what you are stating, do you not use the DataModel approach? How do you get from your master list of items to the edit detail page?
