csc portlet

Is that true? Does MyFaces really = require JSP 2.0? Does JSF itself require it?

Subject: Re: deploy = MyFaces as portlet into Websphere Portal 5.1

I can deploy = my application to pluto 1.0.1 without a problem
I suspect the reason is due to JSP version, as websphere portal 5.1.0.1 is using JSP 1.3, and myFaces needs JSP 2.0.
Is there any way to hack the portal to JSP = 2.0?

Hi Wynn,

Do you have a simple WAR that can be run inside websphere = portal?
Or I mail you my WAR file to check whether mine is = workable?

Did that fix your problem or are you still seeing a blank portlet = page?
