<pre><o:p> </o:p></pre><pre>We are writing a web application but this application will be supported by<o:p></o:p></pre><pre>quite a number of static pages as well as static content on the dynamic<o:p></o:p></pre><pre>pages which will be rendered through my Spring MVC based application.

<p class=MsoNormal>Thank you for the clarification. This should be very
feasible. <br>
<br>
Opencms allows to use third-party taglibs in its JSP templates. There seem to
be people that have used Spring in connection with it. <br>
<br>
You should try to develop a clear idea how you will handle sessions, i.e. try
to come up with a clear idea whether your spring application run inside of the
opencms web context or as separate application. The latter could be a bit
uncomfortable depending on how you handle login state and user information but
people seem to have done it both ways: running an additional application
separate or inside of the opencms webapp. The latter might be a bit easier to
accomplish.<br>
<br>
Overall, opencms should be a good fit.<br>
<br>
Hope that helps<br>
Christian<br>
