Examples of Navigation in Portlet App ?

Does anyone have any examples of navigation within a portlet app? Our navigation design is pretty clumsy right now, and I’d like to improve it. But I’m not sure how.

I would like to implement something that looks like the Toggle Menus control on the left side of the page, similar to the IntegrationServer web admin page.

Is it possible to use the Webapp control (Toggle Menus), even though we have a portlet app?

Is anyone willing to share how you implement the navigation within your application?

Thanks,
Scott

Have you had a chance to look at the PortletLinks (wm_portlet_links) sample available here: Sample Packages for CAF 8.2.1 ? When deployed it creates a folder “CAF Portlet Controls Demo” which shows easy techniques for switching Multiple Views.

Also, i’d recommend looking at “Core Controls Test” (wm_corecontrolstest) as well. While it doesn’t have navigation specific concepts, it does show different ways you can configure links.

Hope this helps,
