Frank, This is an issue I have known about but i have not gotten around to fixing yet. I just modify my custom portlet decorator like this:
#foreach ($action in $actions) #set($actionImage = $action.Link) #if($actionImage.startsWith("content/images/")) #set($actionImage = "content/myportletdecorator/images/${actionImage.substring(15)}") #end #if($actionImage.endsWith(".gif")) #set($actionImageLength = $actionImage.length() - 4) #set($actionImage = "${actionImage.substring(0, $actionImageLength)}.jpg") #end <td align="right" valign="middle" class="PTitle"><a href="${action.Action}" title="${action.Name}"><img src="${actionImage}" alt="${action.Alt}" border="0"></a><td/> #end I will bump this up my todo list, Randy > Chris, > > Thanks for taking a stab at my question, but I don't think that's the > problem.
