Here is what we want to do: 

We want to create URLs which  users can use to
directly go to the appropriate page in the appropriate
pane specified in the URL after user authentication.
E.g. if  we are using four panes each containing one
JSP portlet. We want to create a URL like
http://localhost/jetspeed?paneid=pane1&field2=page5.
When user clicks on this URL, he will be asked to
enter login and password and after which he is
directed to pane 1 and page5 in pane1.

Here is one of the design we are thinking to
implement:
1. Change our login page. Add two hidden fields
(paneid-to take to appropriate pane and field2-to take
to appropriate data page e.g.
field2=discussion_message_id). 

2. Change the login class. If there is paneid field
present, then call the appropriate pane/URL with pane
id from the login class. 

3. On the first page of each pane, conditionally check
if field2 is present(not null). If field2 is not null,
then call/forward to the appropriate page. 

I want to know if there are other better ways (such as
URL filtering at tomcat) to implement what we want to
do.

Thank you,

yk
