Friendly URLs and web content viewers
Friendly URLs provide a way for you to define a custom address for a portal page that is easy to remember and share. By defining friendly URLs for the portal pages, users can navigate the portal using more concise URLs that better reflect the page structure. The JSR 286 web content viewer expands on friendly URL support by enabling you to specify additional path information in the friendly URL that points to a content item to be displayed in the web content viewer. Just as friendly URLs for pages provide numerous usability benefits for users trying to manage and share URLs, friendly URLs for web content provide the same benefits by giving users an easier way to address content items in the context of a portal page.
Work with friendly URLs for web content
With friendly URLs for web content, you can construct URLs to content items that are clear and concise, making the URLs easier for users to remember and share. Friendly URLs for web content are a convenient way for users to create bookmarks to content items or for external applications to provide links directly to content items in the portal. To ensure that you create friendly URLs for web content effectively, it is important to understand how friendly URLs for portal pages are constructed and how friendly URLs for web content extend the portal friendly URLs.
