page for display in a wiki doc?
Hi
#set($extcontent = $xwiki.getURLContent("http://...."))
Then you can play around with some regular expressions to
extract a part
of the content you are interested in.
You could also do more complex groovy stuff with the groovy xml API..

I know that there are lots of ways to do this,
but I'd like
to know if
anyone has a simple way to display all or part of
an
arbitrary page in
an XWiki document.
I don't have a really concrete example at the moment, but things I
have wanted to do in the past involve such things as:
- putting a display on users' profile pages of their company
directory lookup page (which is not in the wiki), either included
directly (not so
nice) or dissected so that its DOM elements can be extracted and the
desired ones reformatted as a part of the page (much better)
- posting a table of contents for a reference document, or a table
within it, so that I can link directly to the heading or
table entry and
users need not go to the document and search for
the specific
information - without having to code each reference by
hand, of course
I'm pretty sure I know how, using either Javascript or the Java DOM
methods supplied with XWiki, to parse and display the
information when
I get it, but how to go about getting XWiki to
fetch the included
document seems to escape me. I know that various things
such as the
feed plugin do this, and I'll probably go to
the source to
learn how
if I don't get an easier answer. But I hope
that someone has done
this already and has found an easy way to do it.
