Thank you Jason, this confirms my experience too.
Maybe due to my poor English, could you please be clearer about:

What do you mean with "source parameter"?

Thank you

The IFramePortlet is definitely the route to go when bringing in pages
from an existing web application that has navigation - like a search
screen from another app that posts search criteria and gets back some
data.  I am certainly no expert, but I got it working.  

One thing to watch out for, is that you need to create a source
parameter that has the url of your starting page, and not the URL
parameter which you would have been using - the Javadocs describe how to
set it up pretty well but the admin pages still show the URL parameter.

Doing a file compare between the 2 java classes (WebPagePortlet), there
are some differences, but I was unable to determine from comments any
reasoning for those differences.  Others probably know why the changes
and for what reasons.  I just use the WebPagePortlet2 one, sounds newer
<g>.

Hi,

could anyone provide me with a simple explanation about differences
between WebPagePortlets and IFramePortlet?

And between WebPagePortlet1 and WebPagePortlet2?

I'm developing a portal in which I embed different webapps into
Jetspeed, that actually acts like a "webapps" container.
I think IFramePortlet is the only one that allows internal navigation
within a Jetspeed page. Am I right?

Thank you for your attention & time
Stefano
