I would like to force a rule to use a category dynamically set by the page it is on. I can find the code that sets the category set in the plp for the container, but cannot send a variable to the cfc from the page.
e.g. I can grab the category of page that send to a dynamic news page (that displays news based on the category of the sending page). I can get the category of the previous page to appear on that page. But I can't get that category into the CFC from the <con: > tag.
Though there has been some discussion about passing params to rules from the calling page, containers are not designed to work like that.
You need to re-write the rule to pick up on page specific variables. For example, on any object invocation you get the object properties copied to the reserved request.stobj scope. Use this to determine the categories to filter by.
We're looking at modifying containers to take parameters but this won;t happen until the 2.4 milestone timeframe.
