Hello,

I am trying to write a test portlet similar to the stock quote portlet
in that the displayed content can be customized by the user (ie user
specifies the stocks of interest).

I have discovered that non-hidden parameters will show up as items a
user may customize as a default implementation but I something more
complex.  I need to load data from an external source (xml file) and
allow a user to check which items they are interested in.  I can't
figure out how  you write and install code to create a custom
config screen for a portlet.

The stock quote example seems to use velocity templates and actions.  Is
this the only way to do it?  I admit that I haven't read up on Velocity
yet.  I guess I was expecting something in the portlet API itself.

Any pointers to relevent code or documentation would be appreciated.

I'm using 1.3a2.

Thanks,
Karen
