So what exactly is this code supposed to do?
Thanks!
Oh, by the way, we just launched our new site last night, which is a combination Apache Jetspeed/FarCry site. The core site is run off of Jetspeed, with content portlets and pages managed by FarCry. Check it out! http://www.wausaubenefits.com
Also a thanks to everybody in the group for helping us get FarCry configured and running.
