Hello Everyone

First I have a question about best practise. The book about OpenCms 7 is
using mainly EL to retrieve content from structured contents instead
using the taglib. Is this a better approach, or in any case faster?

And now to my problem. I created a news-content-type and on the
details-page I would like to show the author so I tried the following
<cms:contentload collector="singleFile" param="%(opencms.uri)"
editable="true">
    <cms:contentaccess var="news" />
    ...
    Created by ${cms:vfs(pageContext).property[news.filename]["Author"]}

well, but this isnt working. What am I doing wrong here?

Thanks
