static html

[daedalus_hammer]

Hi

I want to display a static html page, the same way the default portal does (I want to put the html page inside my war and not load it with CMS).
Is there a quick way to do it ?

Rename the html file as a jsp, then in the doView method of your portlet redirect to the jsp.

Well, I could do that, but then the content would be displayed in a window.
As I said, I want it to look like the Jboss Portal default (homepage), like when you go to http://localhost:8080/portal .
I can load the Jboss index.html, but if I place a html file in the same directory (deploy\jboss-portal.sar\portal-cms.sar\portal\cms\conf\default-content\default), and try to use it instead of the index.html, I gent an "404 - Page Not Found
Oops! We can't really find the resource you're looking for.".

What I was asking: is there an easy way (not having to learn how to use CMS) to load a html file, just like the default portal does:


<content-type>cms</content-type>
<content-uri>/default/index.html</content-uri>


(I know I can use filesystem instead of "cms", but I want that page inside my *.war not on the filesistem).

Right now it seems like the NASA procedure for launching the space shuttle is easier (sorry, the frustration puts words in my mouth ) than just loading my custom page.

If you do not want the window decorations, use the empty renderer. You can declare that in your *-object.xml file as follows:

<window>
 <window-name>XXXX</window-name>
 <instance-ref>XXXX</instance-ref>
 <region>xxxx</region>
 <height>xxxx</height>
 <properties>
 <property>
 <name>theme.windowRendererId</name>
 <value>emptyRenderer</value>
 </property>
 <property>
 <name>theme.decorationRendererId</name>
 <value>emptyRenderer</value>
 </property>
 <property>
 <name>theme.portletRendererId</name>
 <value>emptyRenderer</value>
 </property>
 </properties>
 </window>
