Hi,

I've been looking for the Sling ESP reference documentation, but google was not really helpful in this. Can somebody point to some doc?

To complement Bertrand's post:

ESP is much like JSP but using JavaScript (Rhino implementation) instead of Java as the scripting language.

As such by default an ESP is in script mode, that is everything is written to the response as is. The following constructs are available:

<%= expr %>: Evaluates the expression expr and prints the result
<% javascript %>: Runs the javascript code
<%-- comment -->: ESP comment removed while preprocessing the script

Just like with JSP, ESP scripts are converted into plain JavaScript code on the run, that is a construct like

    <% for (var i in list) { %>
        <p><%= i %>: <%= list[i] %></p>
    <% } %>

is converted to

    for (var i in list) { out.print("\n");
        out.print("<p>"); out.print(i); out.print(": ");
                out.print("list[i]"); out.print("</p>\n");
    }

(Note I split the line in the loop for readability).

Hope this helps.

Regards
Felix

Thanks,
Juerg
