How to format a data in table component cells?

[Valdemaras Repšys <de...@gmail.com>]

Hi,

I'm new to Tapestry, just made a table using the contrib table
component. The data source to the table is a List of beans taken
straight from the SQL Database, columns include timestamps. And in the
date column full date is shown like this: 2006-01-01 00:00:00.0. I want
it to be: 2006-01-01

What is the easiest or the best way to format the date and other columns
using table component? 

I find it a bit cumbersome to format the source itself, because I would
need one more class for bean special formatting code and other
troubles:]

Thank you in advance,
Valdemaras

There have been many threads on this topic, one of the latest ones being 
"Howto format date values within contrib:Table?". I would suggest to do 
a search in the archives.

One of the suggestions in the emails was the following:

Something like this in the html template:
  <span jwcid="accessTimeColumnValue@Block">
            <span jwcid="@Insert"
value="ognl:dataRow.accessTime"
format="ognl:dateFormater" />
       </span>	
      
In your page specification file :
  <property name="dateFormater" 
        initial-value="new java.text.SimpleDateFormat('EEE, d MMM yy HH:mm')"/>

where accessTime is column ID.
