[opencms-dev] Structured content list not displayed

[Xavier Ottolini]

Hi all,

I found the reason why the list was not displayed.

In the tutorial , in the step 6, there was an error. The id of the 
Generic XML content is not 11 but 7. The step 6 should be :

6. Create an overview list page
Now create a JSP page "mylist.jsp" in "myfolder". The mimimum version might look like this:

<%@ taglib prefix="cms" uri="http://www.opencms.org/taglib/cms" <http://www.opencms.org/taglib/cms%22> %>

<cms:contentload collector="allInFolderDateReleasedDesc" param="/myfolder/myarticle_${number}.html|7" editable="true">
<h3><cms:contentshow element="Title" /></h3>
</cms:contentload>

Click on the page. It should now display your single myarticle. Note that you can now create a new article using the "wizard wand". Add some more myarticles. They will be named "myarticle_0001.html" and up. 

The "param" attribute controls what files are actually listed. 
param="/myfolder/myarticle_${number}.html|7" translates to: All contents of
type 7 (generic XML content) in "/myfolder/". New files should be named
"myarticle_${number}.html". You can also get the folder part from a property
by using the "property" attribute and leavin this out of "param", see the
provided demo for that.

Note that there is also an error in the step 4. It should be : 

4. Create a "detail" page. 
The demo contains a "full featured" example. Here's like the "minimum
version", without a template:

<%@ taglib prefix="cms" uri="http://www.opencms.org/taglib/cms" <http://www.opencms.org/taglib/cms%22> %>

<cms:contentload collector="singleFile" param="${opencms.uri}" editable="true">
<h1><cms:contentshow element="Title" /></h1>
</cms:contentload>

Save this file as "mydetail.jsp".
