[opencms-dev] cms:vfs get content of page element

[Yves Glodt]

Hi Achim,

I tried it but in my (probably special) case it did not work. I just get 
no more content rendered as soon as I add the c:set

What I actually do is:

I have page.html, in which (coded in the template), I include page.jsp.

Inside page.jsp I use a tag from my taglib, and I would like to give the 
tag the content of an element of page.html as attribute, to be able to 
add it somewhere inside the tag. That's why I was using thinking the 
cms:vfs would help me

Best regards,
Yves

p.s.
Does someone know how to pass an array of strings to a tag-attribute, 
e.g. specifying :
<jsp:attribute name="myname">Content 1</jsp:attribute>
<jsp:attribute name="myname">Content 2</jsp:attribute>
<jsp:attribute name="myname">Content 3</jsp:attribute>

Defining String[] as type in the .tld file unsurprisingly does not work...
