I'm not so good at tables, but as far as I know I don't know of a way to pass an argument in the columns definition, so I think (again, this might be possible) that the line instead should be;
<binding name="columns" value="literal: date, status:status:convertStatus, !details"/> Note that since ognl is default (though not explicit) inside the string, tapestry will actually look for the method getConvertStatus() in the class that makes up the list. Also I think that wht you want to accomplish by passing that argument is for the method to know which object is being metnioned. But since that very object knows itels, this is not neccesary. I'm trying to understand what you want to do. If I understand correctly, you would like to take a value in a field in a row in a table and replace it with a link. Is that correct? Try to have a simple source definition, just <binding name="columns" value="literal: date, status, !details"/> And then I'm a little wary of the text you're trying to output with the span key statement. SInce it isn't any jwcid, this is nothing that is part of tapestry. I would recommend you to instead just try to have ordinary text, to see if it works, like; <a href="#" jwcid="showDetails">test</a> Then I would define a component that maybe wrote the status as a string. If you add the following to the table definition in your page; <binding name="row" value="row"/> And then ad the following methods to you class (the one that has the same name as the page); public abstract Object getRow(); public abstract void setRow(); Then you could hwrite this in your html file; <a href="#" jwcid="showDetails"><span jwcid="@Insert" value="ognl: row.status" /></a> If the method on your list object that gets status is calles getStatus :) I haven't tried this though, but I hope it works.
