Displaying the fields in an order

Question

Hi,
I have a requirement where i need to display the fields in a 2 column layout like left to right and these fields are displayed dynamically. I am using struts , here tiles wont work as the fields are dynamic in nature as well <c:forEach> and <logic:iterate> wont work either as they are used to display the 1 field at a time and will be displayed sequentially, which is one after another. Hence i need to use the while or for loop in the JSP with scriplet to do it.
Something like :-
<table>
<%
int index =0;
CustomerItem item = null;
while( index < CustomerForm.getCustomerItemList.size()){
item = CustomerForm.getCustomerItemList.get(index);
     %>
<tr>
     <td>
     <label><c:out value="${item.custName}"/>
     <input type="text" name="${item.custId}"/>
     </td>
     <%
     index++;
     if(index<CustomerForm.getCustomerItemList.size()){
          item = CustomerForm.getCustomerItemList.get(index);
     %>
     <td>
     <label><c:out value="${item.custName}"/>
     <input type="text" name="${item.custId}"/>
     </td>
     <%
          index++;
     }%>
</tr>
     <%
%>
</table>
This will allow me display the fields in the left to right manner,but i dont wnat to use scriplet , is there the same can be done using <c:forEach> or <logic:iterate> or we whether we can use a custom tag to do it? please shed some light into it.
thanks

Hi,
Try this
<table>
<logic:iterate id="customerList" name="CustomerForm" property="customerItemList">
<tr>
<td><label><bean:write name="customerList" property="custName"></label></td>
<td><html:text name="customerList" property="custId"/></td>
</tr>
</logic:iterate>
</table>
or
<table>
<logic:iterate id="customerList" name="CustomerForm" property="customerItemList">
<tr>
<td><label><c:out value="${customerList.custName}"></label></td>
<td><input type="text" name="custId" value="${customerList.custId}"/></td>
</tr>
</logic:iterate>
</table>
