Person JSP tag

The people awareness feature of WebSphere® Portal is coded with the

person JSP tag.

The Person JSP tag provides contextual collaboration functionality related to a named person. It generates the HTML that renders the specific set of actions to display on the Person menu.

WebSphere Portal person tag syntax:

<person 
value="value attribute" 
valueType="valueType attribute" 
displayName="displayName attribute"></person>

where value attribute is the unique ID that is sent to the Sametime® server; valueType is the type of value specified for value; and displayName is used as the display name on the JSP page. Values for valueType are listed below:

• LDAPDN (the default value)

• EMAIL

• MEMBERDN

• WMMID

Note: A faces portlet also includes an id attribute, this refers to a faces attribute but does not refer to the person tag.
