Enhancement of Display Tag
In one of my earlier posts I referenced an article on DevX using DisplayTag and a little Javascript to create highly functional tables for your web application. Even though Display Tag is a great plugin for Java (I have used it for numerous applications), there are some things about it that irritate me… one is the fact that it doesn’t remember the sort order when you refresh the page. This link describes some of the enhancements Sebastien did to Display Tag to make the plugin more user-friendly.

Microsoft Project Alternative
OpenProj is a nice alternative to Microsoft Project. Maintained by Serena Software, it can open existing Microsoft Project files (*.mpp, *mpx), Project 2003 XML, and Gnome planner files (*.planner). OpenProj provides Gantt, PERT, WBS, RBS Charts, Earned Value costing and more. Files can be saved as OpenProj (*.pod), Project 2003 XML, or with “Projects on Demand“, saved as a PDF.
