Thanks for the response. What I originally wanted to do was to present to the user a drop won list of those portlet that are configured in their profile. We are adding some "Add to Favourites" functionality whereby we have static links and also user defined links which are created at runtime by populating parameters within our Links portlet. This specifies the anchor,url and forward:name. Ideally we wanted to just present the list of portlets to the user so that they can say "look at the Goods Receipting screen in the Financials portlet.

J1 can be confusing for application developers because of Turbine's architecture mixed in. Most common programming problems are with actions. I think the portlet api gets the render/action phases down pretty well. You should try to develop a JSR 168 portlet in J1, just for something to compare to and see how you like the standard. -- David Sean Taylor Bluesunrise Software [EMAIL PROTECTED] [office] +01 707 773 4646 [mobile] +01 707 529 9194 --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] --- Incoming mail is certified Virus Free.
