[Mc4j-development] Tabular Data

[Dan C. <dan...@gm...>]

It's my understanding that MC4J currently only supports a few basic
data types. In particular there is not yet support for the TabularData
type. I was wondering if anyone has had success in displaying their
own tabular data. For example I have a list of string descriptions
that I want to create a dashboard for. I've tried the HTML dashboard
component but not the result I am looking for.

here's basically what I'm trying to do

public String getFrames(){
String result="";
for(int i=0;i<a.lenght;i++){
result += a[i] + "\n";
}
return result;
}

and the dashboard html to show the exposed attribute

<object classid="FrameBean.Frames"></object>

When the page comes up all the attibutes are just in one long row

"string one string two string three"

I've tried ending each string with a <br> tag but that doesn't work either.

Maybe an array of some sort is going to be the way to go, but I
haven't seen this used and don't know how to go about it. Can anyone
offer any suggestions?
