The simplest stand-alone table requires only the requestURI parameter, with the Spring controller URL (that is the mapped controller name; the Spring standard is .htm, although a lot of people use .do per Struts; I use .do here, although that's not what I'm actually using) in it: <display:table ... requestURI="/myPage.do"> ... </display:table> The more complicated scenario is when you're embedding the table within a form (this is very common with Spring MVC and SimpleFormController and the like) and need to preserve sorts and paging across form requests. Here's how I handle this: Within my controller I have a getTableViewParameters() method. This looks for all request parameters that start with "d-" (there's probably a better way to find displaytag sorting and paging params, but this works for us!) and stores them in a Map<String, String> object. I then put this object into the model I return with the view: Map<String, String> displayParams = getTableViewParameters(request); if (displayParams.size() > 0) { model.put("tableview", displayParams); } return new ModelAndView("viewName", "model", model); Then in the view page, I have a little block that takes these parameters and sticks them onto the Spring request URL: <c:url value="/myPage.do" var="formUrl"> <c:forEach items="${model.tableview}" var="viewparam"> <c:param name="${viewparam.key}" value="${viewparam.value}"/> </c:forEach> </c:url> What this does is takes the Spring request URL and appends all of your tableview parameters to it. That means that you've now got a URL that will submit a form with the paging and sorting parameters preserved: <form name="doStuff" method="post" action="${formUrl}">... -- Rick Herrick [EMAIL PROTECTED] I haven't got time for inner peace.
