Amazing taglib for displaying data in tables

Ever needed to present a bunch of data in tables and started to get sick of using logic:iterate ? Then you need to try the <display:*> library. Just send in your array of data and it displays everything in nice tables.

If you need to customize the look & feel you just write your own decorator. Cool stuff! 🙂
