New subject: [xwiki-dev] Including Servlets/JSPs in templates - a simple patch

2 Jun 2005

Hello,

So far it works good. It still needs more testing with different 
character encodings.

Greetings, Lilianne E. Blaze



Changes in /template/macros.vm:
Add:
#macro( includeServlet $url)

$xwiki.includeServlet($url)

#end
