We need to abstract it out a little bit in order to submit it, but we'd be happy to once we get the kinks worked out.
The URL that you provided would certainly work for what we're trying to do (any idea when that might be available?). We were also wondering if it's possible to update the preferences database directly and take out the middleman, but I'm not sure if Jetspeed is caching the preferences and would thus not pick up the updates. -----Original Message----- From: David Sean Taylor [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, May 16, 2008 4:27 PM To: Jetspeed Users List Subject: Re: Jetspeed Preferences with Flex On May 16, 2008, at 2:10 PM, Ford, Jennifer M. wrote: > Hi there, > > We've been experimenting with the use of Adobe Flex inside of our > Jetspeed-2.1.2 portal in order to get some rich internet functionality > that we've wrestled with implementing in Ajax. > > Everything is working like a charm except for preferences.

That seems interesting! Are you planning on contributing your solution to Apache? Getting some useful functionality between portlets and flex would be a great addition to Portals Bridges The Jetspeed Desktop does form updates without actually refreshing the page You may want to look into the desktop, although it may be a little complicated to figure out There is also the Jetspeed XML API, but we do not have a XML API for updating preferences, yet... I'd like to propose something like http://localhost:8080/jetspeed/ajaxapi?action=updateprefs&id=ps-1003&pre fs=pref1,pref2,pref3&values=one,two,three Although we may need to rethink the encoding of the parameters...
