View example scripts for creating, publishing, promoting, and demoting a page by using the Portal Scripting Interface.

JACL code example for creating a page with a object ID for publishing:

# Scripting bean example: create a simple page (multi-column Layout)           
#                                                                              
 
# Procedure: create a multi-column page below the page that is currently       
# selected, and place the given portlets into the layout.                      
#

#   name              The name of the page                                     
#   portlet_names     A list of portlet names.                                 
# returns:
#   oid               The id of the page that has been created

This example is based on the testme.jacl example for creating a page under Script mode. The additions that are required for later publishing are highlighted.
JACL code example for publishing the page:
