Description
Reading the inner-workings of display-tag library i found that all HTML tags are "stored" as static final String's, this limiting the flexibility of HTML code to be displayed.
I think it will be better if all HTML tags/keywords/etc are stored in a .properties file. This will allow any user tu customize table generation to it's own needs.
For example, i couldn't find a way to render a table where the rows are scrollable and the header isnt. (i dont want scrollbars for the whole page, just for the rows).
Maybe there is just another way to make table writing more customizable? (without modifying displayTags code, of course)

The only html embedded in the code is the barebone xhtml table, so it makes no sense to allow users to change it (why you should need to rename the table, tr, or td tags??)
