Use the person tag of the Collaborative Services API in a custom portlet to provide online awareness for users of the portlet.

1. Add the following line to the page:

       <%@taglib uri="/WEB-INF/tld/people.tld" prefix="pa"%>
   

2. Include a statement in the page similar to the following line:

       <pa:person value="CN=John Smith,OU=SALES,O=ACME" valueType="LDAPDN" displayName="John Smith" />
   

The displayName attribute is optional.

The supported types for valueType are:

• EMAIL
• LDAPDN
• MEMBERDN
• WMMID

In the following example, the bolded portions interact with Collaborative Services. The first % statement is a reference to the Collaborative Services tag library. The bold statement uses the Collaborative Services person tag to display a person's name as a live link.

<%@taglib uri="/WEB-INF/tld/people.tld" prefix="pa" %>
<%@taglib uri="/WEB-INF/tld/portlet.tld" prefix="portletAPI" %>
portletAPO:init Hello example <h1>Collaborative Services Hello JSP</h1>
<br />
<h2>Hello,<pa:person value="wpsadmin@acme.com" valueType="EMAIL" /> !</h2>
