Re: List Displaying Child Content

Hello Christopher,

I've done a similar thing

in a page, masterPage.jsp, a left menu is used to add new children pages:
<%@ include file="leftmenu.inc"%> (it's the .inc from the jahia templates)

Then a scriptlet is used to access the children of the page:

    <%
            int id = jPage.getID();
            JahiaField jDescription;
            JahiaField jTitle;
            String description = "";
            String title = "";
            String url = "";
            %>

            <%
                Enumeration childs = jPage.getChilds();
                while (childs.hasMoreElements()) {
                    JahiaPage laPage = (JahiaPage)childs.nextElement();
                    id = laPage.getID();
                    url = jData.params().composePageUrl(id);
                    jTitle = jData.fields().getAbsoluteField("title",id);
                    if (jTitle != null)
                        title = jTitle.getValue();
                    else
                        title = "";
                                           
                    jDescription = 
jData.fields().getAbsoluteField("description",id);
                    if (jDescription != null)
                        description = jDescription.getValue();
                    else
                        description = "";
            %>
                <h2>Page:<%= id %>, <%= title %></h2><br>
                <%= description %>
                <a href='<%= url %>'><%= laPage.getTitle() %></a>
                <hr>   
            <%
                }
%>

the template of the children, named rubrique.jsp, contains 2 fields, 
title and description, that a displayed in the mother page;
.....       
   <!-- ==== Titre ==== -->
            <content:declareField name='title' title='title' 
type='SmallText'/>
            <content:textField name='title' defaultValue='' id='title'/>
            <jahiaHtml:actionMenu name='title' namePostFix='' 
resourceBundle='jahiatemplates.Corporate_portal_templates' useFieldSet=''>
            </jahiaHtml:actionMenu>
            </p>
           
            <p>
            <!-- ==== Description ==== -->
            <content:declareField name='description' title='description' 
type='BigText'/>
            <content:bigTextField name='description' defaultValue='' 
id='description'/>
            <jahiaHtml:actionMenu name='description' namePostFix='' 
resourceBundle='jahiatemplates.Corporate_portal_templates' useFieldSet=''>
            </jahiaHtml:actionMenu>
            </p>   

That what i've done. if someone has a solution using only the tags, i'm 
interessed !!

Regards,

Guillaume.
