Just an update. I'm not sure exactly why the steps i took the first time didn't work... but it seems nothing was wrong with my procedure. I Re-downloaded trunk, re-implemented and everything worked just like a charm. The only difference between the two was the way i imported the projected into eclipse. The first method was unconventional and the second method was via mvn eclipse:eclipse
Anyhow so for future reference, it is 1) Creating the handler page. 2) Creating the jsp page 3) Adding the addhelper in the ImportExport portlet. Now i can finally move along and finish this piece. Thanks again for everyone's input.
