The path component tag is used to represent certain parts
of the URL such as the servlet path, the base path, or the context
path of the current page. This tag can be added to presentation templates,
element designs, and component designs.
This is the format of a path component tag:
[pathcmpnt type=" " start=" " end=" " ]
To create a path component tag:
- Click Insert a Tag from a presentation
template, component, or element design field. The Tag Helper dialog opens.
- Select Path Component as the tag
type.
- Select a path type. This is added to the tag as the type="
" parameter:
- Base
- This returns the base section of a URL. For example, http://hostname:8080 This should only be used when rendering content using a Servlet.
- Noprefixbase
- The URL generated by the path component is fully qualified when
viewed through a portal. Use this instead of "base" when displaying
content in rendering portlets.
- Context
- This returns the context section of a URL. For example, /ILWWCM This should only be used when rendering content
using a Servlet.
- Servlet
- This returns the Servlet path of a URL. For example, /ILWWCM/connect This should only be used when rendering content using a Servlet.
- Noprefixservlet
- The URL generated by the path component is fully qualified when
viewed through a portal. Use this instead of "servlet" when displaying
content in rendering portlets.
- Prefix
- The URL generated by the path component is fully qualified when
viewed through a portal. Use this setting to display the prefix value
of web content displayed in a rendering portlet. If no prefix exists
then an empty string is returned.
- Click OK to add the tag to your
design.
Once you have added the tag to your design, you can also
add the following parameters to the tag:

attributes are not mandatory. |
