Hi,

I am trying to display data using datatables. I have tried the examples given in coreservlets but its not working for me. The table data is not populating. The page is not even calling the getter method.
The jsp file:
<%@ taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/jsf/core" prefix="f" %>
<%@ taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/jsf/html" prefix="h" %>
<f:view>
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN">
<HTML>
<HEAD><TITLE>Fruit Sales</TITLE>
<LINK REL="STYLESHEET"
HREF="./css/styles.css"
TYPE="text/css">
</HEAD>
<BODY>
<CENTER>
<TABLE BORDER=5>
<TR><TH CLASS="TITLE">Fruit Sales By Quarter</TH></TR>
</TABLE>
<H2>Apples and Oranges</H2>

<h:dataTable value="#{salesBean.yearlySales}" var="quarterlySales" border="1">
<h:column>
<f:verbatim>$</f:verbatim>
<h:outputText value="quarterlySales.apples"/>
</h:column>

<h:column>
<f:verbatim>$</f:verbatim>
<h:outputText value="#{quarterlySales.oranges}"/>
</h:column>

</h:dataTable>

</CENTER>
</BODY></HTML>

</f:view>

The bean: SalesBean
package coreservlets;

import java.util.ArrayList;

public class SalesBean {
private double apples = 0.0, oranges = 0.0;
private ArrayList yearlySales;

public SalesBean() {
public SalesBean(double apples, double oranges) {
setApples(apples);
setOranges(oranges);
}

public double getApples() { return(apples); }

public void setApples(double apples) {
this.apples = apples;
}

public double getOranges() { return(oranges); }

public void setOranges(double oranges) {
this.oranges = oranges;
}

public ArrayList getYearlySales() {
yearlySales = new ArrayList();
yearlySales.add(new SalesBean(100.22, 200.32));
yearlySales.add(new SalesBean(300.44, 400.55));
yearlySales.add(new SalesBean(500.66, 600.77));
yearlySales.add(new SalesBean(700.88, 800.99));
return(yearlySales);
}

}

my faces-config entry is: <managed-bean>
<managed-bean-name>salesBean</managed-bean-name>
<managed-bean-class>
coreservlets.SalesBean
</managed-bean-class>
<managed-bean-scope>request</managed-bean-scope>
</managed-bean>

can anyone please tell me where I am going wrong?
