displaytag table column totals

Question

Hi,

I'm using the displaytag JSP tag library to generate tables that show column totals. For example in the JSP code below, only those columns with the attribute total="true" will have totals generated.

<display:table name="myTable" id="myTable" decorator="org.displaytag.decorator.TotalTableDecorator">
    <display:column property="name" title="Name" />
    <display:column property="description" title="Description" />

    <display:column property="openCount" title="Opened" total="true"/>
    <display:column property="revenueTotal" title="Commission" total="true"/>
</display:table>

The problem is that displaytag places these totals in the final <tr> in the table body, but I need them to be inside the table footer (<tfoot>) instead. Is this possible without post-processing the generated HTML in JavaScript?

Cheers, Don

Take a look at display:footer (which is how the example @tvanfosson referenced works)
