[opencms-dev] content of called html-page can not be included in template

[Claus Priisholm]

I don't recall who originally made this contribution, I think you can 
find it in the 2003 archives. It may have further details on the 
subject, and furthermore I seem to recall fiddling a bit with the 
original hack to make it fit my needs, so try to look it up if the 
solution below doesn't work for you.

This is what I've used in a couple of situations where I ran into the 
same problem as you, use it as you would the cms.include() method:

----8<----
public String include_hack(CmsJspActionElement cms, String uri, String 
element, Map parameters) throws com.opencms.core.CmsException {
   CmsXmlTemplate t = new CmsXmlTemplate();
   CmsXmlTemplateFile tf = new CmsXmlTemplateFile(cms.getCmsObject(), 
"/system/bodies" + uri);
   if (parameters != null) {
     try {
       HashMap modParameterMap = new HashMap(parameters.size());
       // ensure parameters are always of type String[] not just String
       Iterator i = parameters.keySet().iterator();
       while (i.hasNext()) {
         String key = (String)i.next();
         Object value = parameters.get(key);
         if (value instanceof String[]) {
           modParameterMap.put(key, value);
         } else {
           if (value == null)
             value = "null";
           String[] newValue = new String[] { value.toString()};
           modParameterMap.put(key, newValue);
         }
       }
       parameters = modParameterMap;
     } catch (UnsupportedOperationException e) {
       // parameter map is immutable, just use it "as is"
     }
     return tf.getProcessedTemplateContent(t, new Hashtable(parameters), 
element);
   } else {
     return tf.getProcessedTemplateContent(t, null, element);
   }
}
