I am relatively new to Jetspeed, so am asking for some guidance on the best appraoch for this problem: I have 12 static html pages, each one representing a monthly calendar. In each page, I have a pulldown which allows the user to change to whatever month they prefer. I would like to have a portlet on my site which provides similar capability, but would like to avoid writing a jsp/action class if possible. This may be inevitable though, since I want the initial page to be based upon the current month (so when the portlet is first loaded, the current month is displayed). I have done this in other, non-jetspeed sites primarily with javascript.
My questions are: 1) Is there an approach other than jsp/action class that would be easier ? 2) I would like to maintain the static HTML files using an html editor -- does this appraoch lend itself to this ? Also, is there a general tutorial on linking to other parts of the portal from within a portlet. I have seen many posts, but do not really grasp the whole concept (i.e. jslink ?) Thank you.
