JavaSoft Portled Code - including a website

Hi all

I downloaded the WAR files and I'm going trough the examples now. There are several portles, that link content from other sites to the portal such as JavaSoft, Slashdot....

Where can I find the source for this ? I want to try to add another external page into the portal. 

cheers

martin

You shouldn't have to change any code.
You configure your portlet in the registry. Here is an example from
demo-portlets.xreg

    <portlet-entry name="JavaWeb" hidden="false" type="ref"
parent="WebPagePortlet" application="false">
        <meta-info>
            <title>JavaSoft</title>
            <description>JavaSoft</description>
        </meta-info>
        <parameter name="dont_remove_applet" value="yes" hidden="false"/>
        <url>http://java.sun.com/</url>
        <category>sites.companies.sun</category>
    </portlet-entry>

Just copy it, change the name attribute, meta info, and change the <url> to
point to the site you'd like

There is also an IFrame Portlet, here is another example from the demo
registry:

    <portlet-entry name="JetspeedFramed" hidden="false" type="ref"
parent="IFramePortlet" application="false">
        <meta-info>
            <title>Jetspeed Framed</title>
            <description>Navigate SomeSite within an IFRAME</description>
        </meta-info>
        <parameter name="source" value="http://jakarta.apache.org/jetspeed"
hidden="false"/>
        <media-type ref="html"/>
        <category>frames</category>
    </portlet-entry>
