[opencms-dev] Static export of JSPs

[Ivan Biddles]

Thanks, Alex.

One other question. What if only certain pages needed the JSPs to be
fully dynamic but the majority would be fine with the static output from
the JSPs.

Could I define the "export=false" on some folders but not on others even
though they access the same JSPs? Would that work?

Best wishes,
             Ivan

Ivan,

your assumtion is correct. Answer "a)" is what is done by the static
export. If you create a JSP, it is automatically set as "export=false".
In case you use a JSP subelement (like for Navigation etc.) you can set
"export=false" at a toplevel folder, in that case nothin in that folder
will be exported. 

Best Regards,
Alex.
