Mike,
A question is this collection been generated from a database via a sql statement, because if it is you would be able to change the sql to "group by" the "EmpID" which would get you almost all the way to the output you want. All that would be left is to do a bit of scripting to only display the "EmpID" when it changes.

I have a collection that contains the following data: EmpId CourseId Date_Taken Assessment 1234 1 01/01/2000 PASS 1234 2 01/02/2001 PASS 1234 4 01/05/2002 PASS 1234 1 01/04/2003 PASS 1432 1 01/06/2002 PASS 1432 2 01/08/2004 PASS 1432 1 01/06/2004 PASS
I would like to display the data as follows: EmpID: 1234 CourseID Date_Taken Assessment 1 01/01/2000 PASS 1 01/04/2003 PASS 2 01/02/2001 PASS 4 01/05/2002 PASS EmpID:1432 1 01/06/2002 PASS 1 01/06/2004 PASS 2 01/08/2004 PASS
I have looked at the display tag library but this will not produce this output. I have also looked at the taglibs-iterator library but can't see how I would use this with bean collections (without writing lots of jsp) I have also looked at nested - but all the examples seem to use two collections to iterate around.
Whats the most efficient / best way of acheiving my end output?
