This is probably late, but I've just committed to trunk a filter that
will simplify embedding a portlet, or two, or however many into a simple
jsp page.
This filter enables you to simply use the pluto:portlet tags to hard
code the path of your portlet into a jsp. No configuration other than
that and adding the filter config to your web.xml is requied. see
about.jsp in the portal app for an example.

Essentially we're just trying to get a single Portlet to render in a
legacy
JSP page (i.e. no option to use a special Servlet or anything).
Gotcha, that should definitely be a piece of cake, and since it
obviously hasn't been for you, we need to do some documentation (as a
side note, you may want to consider using a servlet instead of a jsp to
perform the actual integration). You definitely don't need the portal
driver for this type of functionality.
This is great feedback. I'll try to put together a tutorial over the
weekend which details how to do this. Would you be willing to review it
and provide some enhancements based on your experiences?
Hi David,
Did you manage to write anything about it?
I'm just back from the christmas holidays and we're as stuck on this as
ever.
