I am working on a Struts 1.2 projectas a part of it,
I am working on a JSP from which i am making an AJAX call,I have a huge amount of data returned from the call,Which i want to display in a table using Display tag
In what format do i return data from the Servlet(AJAX call)?
Can anyone direct me on how to do this.

Thank you

You must return data in the form of a List or collection. Simply read this http://www.displaytag.org/1.2/tut_sources.html

Ok sorry for misunderstanding . Well i do not know much about struts 1.2 but i know struts 2.0 . First the url which are using via get or post in ajax might be "something.do" in this "something.do" you must be forwarding to another jsp page in which you have to display the table.

as in ajax you will be executing the action. and as action will be forwarded to the jsp (what you have mapped in struts.xml). So indirectly you will be getting that jsp as response from your ajax request.


what i wrote, i had done that via struts 2.

Well,How can I write a Table with display tag to the response stream?

OK

I am making an AJAX call from a JSP,which would fetch me large amount of data
I want to put this data in a table using display tag


For say I have all the data i want to show in the servlet (after making the AJAX call),
Now i got to put this data on to the JSP,How do i do it???
(Please note it is an AJAX call)
