For struts2 tags, checkout
https://issues.apache.org/struts/browse/WW-1569
The problem I have with displaytag is that in an effort to satisfy
everyone's needs, it is infinitely configurable. IMHO, that makes it
hard to figure out and hard to use. The other issue we had with display
tags is that with struts2, it isn't backed by a freemarker template.
Every other built-in tag in struts2 is backed by a freemarker template,
which is a much better solution to customization issue. In the simple
case, it will be simple, but it will also let you do the more
complicated scenerio.
Also checkout http://forum.springframework.org/showthread.php?t=33012 if
your using spring.

Hi Andrew,
I suggest using displaytag with its external paging and sorting features

I am interested to know the ‘best’ practice for navigating through
long lists. At the moment we have implemented Struts-layout for this
purpose. Our implementation currently retrieves the full dataset and
uses Struts-layout sorting and navigation pager options to navigate
through the results. However the drawback of this approach is in
performance as our application will contain long lists.
I have read many articles and browsed many forums but haven’t yet
been able to find a ‘best practice’ or ideal approach.
