That is because your data object is a Map of Strings and not of objects containing a getMap() method. It's using the Map as a source of rows (each entry = one row) and then trying to call getMap() on the value of the Map entry's value which is, as it tells you, of type java.lang.String.
Create a class: public class MyMap { private Map<String, String> map = new HashMap<String, String>(); public MyMap(String a, String b, String c) { map.put("A", a); map.put("B", b); map.put("C", c); } public Map<String, String> getMap() { return map; } } In a jsp file: <% List<MyMap> map = new ArrayList<MyMap>(); for (int i = 0; i < 10; i++) { map.add(new MyMap("a" + i, "b" + i, "c" + i)); } request.setAttribute("map", map); %> <display:table name="map"> <display:column property="map(A)" title="A*"/> <display:column property="map(B)" title="B*"/> <display:column property="map(C)" title="C*"/> </display:table> Does that work any better?
