Hi i did some reading on ofbiz and wanted to understand something:
HttpEngine: If i declare it in controller.xml, then how does it get invoked
and also when? (..bit confused)
My requirement is
when the following line is encontered in the .ftl(or may be jsp) file :
<object>
PARAM name="xyz " value="abc.ext&xml_source=sample.jsp"
</object>
the sample.jsp script should run.
While this jsp runs it creates <tags> readable by abc.ext and also has some
scriptlets to generate dynamic data.
I did look at the webtools but did not find much relating to my requirement
(correct me if i am wrong)
Regards
