[09:47:57 EDT(-0400)] <lennard> athena, have you ever used displayTag in a portlet?
[09:47:58 EDT(-0400)] <lennard> http://displaytag.sourceforge.net/1.2/index.html
[09:48:21 EDT(-0400)] <athena> no, i haven't used that one
[09:48:46 EDT(-0400)] <athena> i use the fluid pager for displaying tables most of the time now
[09:48:48 EDT(-0400)] <lennard> They claim a JSR 168 integration, and even mention that if your portal uses pluto integration should be simple... although I doubt the features I would be using would require it.
[09:49:03 EDT(-0400)] <athena> since that has javascript support for both sorting by column and paging through the result set
[09:49:25 EDT(-0400)] <lennard> does it automagically convert to csv, pdf, and excel as well?
[09:49:26 EDT(-0400)] <athena> i've never been much of a fan of view-side tags that print out their own HTML
[09:49:32 EDT(-0400)] <athena> no 
[09:50:18 EDT(-0400)] <lennard> that is the only reason I'm looking at this one. the client listed those as nice to haves... and this is a little admin reporting portlet on some of our community code.
[09:50:23 EDT(-0400)] <athena> gotcha
[09:50:27 EDT(-0400)] <athena> yeah that makes sense
[09:50:35 EDT(-0400)] <athena> i have used apache POI to produce excel before
