    Layout Strategy

      The layoutstrategy operates at the html page level, correct? so, if write my own strategy it becomes possible to propagate a parameter to every portlet by using the setAttribute() method of the PortletContext correct? In addition to that I can access to the http request parameters using the method getHttpServletRequest()...

      If this is true, it is perfect for my need. Could you confirm?

      Thanks

          --> no. the portlet context in the strategy is not the javax.portlet.PortletContext. It is a strategy specific context to propagate the things like the region name, and order in which the portlet resides.
