[exoplatform] This is my scenario

["RossellaTerlizzi" <terlizzi.rossella@xxxxxxxx>]

Hi all.

I have a problem, this is the scanario:

 

I'm in page A. This page is in a three columns template; in this page there are two instances of my portlet (let's call them a1 and a2) and another portlet (let's call it a3). I have this situation a1 and a2 two instances of my portlet, a3 instance of another portlet; these portlets are in the central column.
Now in the left column there are other two portlets (let's call them b1 and b2): one is my "Menu" and another is a google searchMotor.
In the right column there are other two portlet a banner and a login to the portal portlet; let's call them c1 and c2.

 

Now the portlet a1 shows a list of objects. Well i'ld like that when a user clicks on a link what is showed to the user is:
Portlet b1 and b2 on the left column, portlet a1 with the details of user choice in the central. Portlets a2, c1 and c2 must no longer be present.
So by starting from a three columns template i must arrive to a two columns template where there are different portlet.

 

Now the most common way to do this is to pass a request parameter so i can change the page and pass the item id to the "detail portlet"...
BUT portlets are not dipendent of request parameter so when i set this parameter in the request it's lost....Is it possible that in the JSR 168
portlet specification this very simple thing has not been thought? I have read the Portlet 1.0 spec and it seems to me that there is no reference
to this scenario.

 

Has everyone solved this?
Thanks to all
