Hi Simon(again!),
Have noted your post to Sean about creating a page on
the fly. Should I guess from your servlet code that a workaround for my
issue is that I get an arraylist of hotels, then create a new content node
with that information. Once in magnolia specific objects, I would then use
the typical magnolia cms taglibs to show the data?
Is that correct? Any workaround, like avoiding having
to deal with magnolia specific java objects and just by-pass it and use
normal jstl?
Any advice appreciated,
Conor
