Good to see that a bunch of the outstanding SF requests are being cleaned out!
While you are at it, I think request 683989 (date format via a format="MMddyyyy" attribute) should be marked as closed. I think we need to take a philosophical stand against attribute creep. I feel pretty strongly that the column and table tag attributes should NOT expand to handle every conceivable display permutation. Attributes that are solely needed for the formatting of data - that essentially just format the contents of a cell - should be shunned. TD level formatting should be handled by JSP code in the body of the content tag, or by the use of ColumnDecorators. (BTW, need to add support for multiple ColumnDecorators on one column. Something like decorators="com.apruitt.SomeOp:'ANDY',dateFormat:'MMddyyyy'", where org.displaytag.decorator.* is implicit for unqualified tags. ) The ColumnTag currently has 27 attributes. That's too many. But the interface still needs to grow in order to handle some needs that can only be accomplished with ColumnTag attributes, like export suppression or JSTL alignment or tighter control over the column heading. Do you really want to see a ColumnTag with 50+ attributes? How would you ever go about learning such a beast? --andy ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: SF.net Giveback Program.
