May be possible but not smart.
Should be returned by the database & just displayed by JSTL.
You need a crosstab query. Which database are you using?
I'm using Oracle. I've got a crosstab query going now, but what happens is that I'm getting getting duplicate rows with one row having a null in a certain field and the other with data in the field:
select distinct x.outlet_no, building.name, x.rm, decode(b.color,NULL,' ',b.color), decode(b.switchip,NULL,' ',b.switchip) BSWITCHIP, decode(b.blade,NULL,' ',b.blade) BBLADE, decode(b.port,NULL,' ',b.port) BPORT, decode(b.vlan,NULL,' ',b.vlan) BVLAN, decode(o.color,NULL,' ',o.color) , decode(o.switchip,NULL,' ',o.switchip) OSWITCHIP, decode(o.blade,NULL,' ',o.blade) OBLADE, decode(o.port,NULL,' ',o.port) OPORT, decode(o.vlan,NULL,' ',o.vlan) OVLAN, decode(g.color,NULL,' ',g.color) , decode(g.switchip,NULL,' ',g.switchip) GSWITCHIP, decode(g.blade,NULL,' ',g.blade) GBLADE, decode(g.port,NULL,' ',g.port) GPORT, decode(g.vlan,NULL,' ',g.vlan) GVLAN, d.dn from building, data b, data o, data g, cablepair d, new_outlet x where x.outlet_no = b.outlet_no(+) and x.outlet_no = o.outlet_no(+) and x.outlet_no = g.outlet_no(+) and x.id=d.cabl_pr(+) and b.color(+) = 'B' and o.color(+) = 'O' and g.color(+) = 'G' and x.buildid=building.id(+)
This will give me outlets of three colors, but the phone (dn) from 'cablepair' will cause duplicate rows. I guess the best way to eliminate this is to union this query against itself for each color, which will be clunky. Thanks for all your input!

Quoting Helios Alonso <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
I think he wants a table like this:
+ John (in red) + Mark (in blue) + Nic (in green) + Helios (in red) + David (in blue) ....
If you have an array of 3 colors named colors (I dont know but, maybe the set tag can build a mapping that works like an array...)
Try this: <!-- initialization --> <c:set var="colorIndex" value="0"/> <!-- loop --> <tr> <td bgcolor="${colors[colorIndex++%3]}" >
In the expression you're coding the round robin (increment and modulus 3) and the selection of the color based on the index.
But, I didn't try it. I hope the modulus is a valid construction in EL.

examples..I'm not exactly sure what you mean with "rotate"?!
Do you just have a collection that you want to iterate - with each each
entry corresponding to a "row" in the table? Or shall every row display a
different "column" of your table? It's hard to understand from your
For displaying tabular data, you should check out the displaytag-library: http://displaytag.sourceforge.net/ - it has nothing to with jstl, but gives you everything you will likely ever need for displaying tables...

Greetings, I have a table of data that I'd basically like to rotate, is this possible/smart in JSTL? Basically, I have an attribute with three colors, each one is a different row in a table. 001 Blue data 001 Green data 002 Purple data I want to have one row:001 | Blue Data | Green Data | Purple Data. Any suggestions? Please help by pointing me elsewhere if you can.... - Nic
