Problems with portlet parameter customization (bug?)
Hello,
I have a problem with portlet parameter customization. When a user logs
in, and a portlet parameter is set to a value (let's call it value A)
that does not equal the standard value from the registry (let's call
that value B), and it is set to value B, then afterwards the customizer
shows not value B (the current value) but value A (the value it had when
logging in). So basically, when changing a parameter value to the
registry value, the customizer still shows the old, non-registry value.
However, in the PSML, the values are correct.
I did some debugging, and it seems that when setting a value equal to
the registry value, it is removed from the user's PSML (this happens in
CustomizeAction.doUpdate()). However, in
CustomizeAction.buildNormalContext(), if the current value cannot be
found in the portlet instance (which is, I suppose, the value from the
user's PSML), it uses instead
Portlet.getPortletConfig().getInitParameter(). I can only guess that
that is the value as it was when the portlet was initialized, i.e. when
the user has logged in. But this does _not_ represent the current value.
So my question really is: bug or feature?
Cheers

I committed some portlet customizer related changes few days ago so Sept. 9
is not really up to date. I can't help you with your firewall problem :-(

FWIW
I have the same firewall issue at work.
I just saw this tonight and plan to try it out.

Hi Mark,
the problem is that I am sitting behind a firewall and cannot access the
CVS server directly. And the latest packaged version is from 9. Sept.
2003. Is that really up-to-date? If not so, how can I get the current
version?
Cheers

Hi Mark,
I just tested it with a CVS copy from yesterday and I can't reproduce
the bug.
Good work :-)

There different ways to achieve this.
1>First thing is u can use IFramePortlet. This will
display all other links within same window.
2>If you don't want to use <IFrame>, you may go
WebSurfPortlet which rewrites all links so that they
will be displayed in same window.

Showing external URL in portlet
Posted by suchisubhra sinha <su...@cisco.com>.
Hi All,
I am trying to build an application that is calling an external site
(www.yahoo.com)
In one of my portlet. This is working fine. But as yahoo has so many
links inside
, any one clicking one of their links it is taking them outside our
portlet look and feel.
They see what Yahoo is showing them. Is there any way I can show
them in my portlet?
My requirement is no way user can go oot of my portlet/portal look
and feel( don't
Think I am stufburn).
Please help me.
Thanx
~suchi
