Configuring HTML Portlets
HTML Portlets are portlets that you can create using HTML tags.
You can write tags in HTML portlets to show systems or WEB sites outside of Garoon.
Notes on HTML Tags
To ensure that the HTML portlet works correctly, be noted the following when you write tags:
HTML tags are written in lowercase letters.
You should write start tags and end tags in pairs. If you place a portlet that does not have proper HTML tag pairs in a portal, it can cause problems such as a portal editing page incorrectly appears or a portal that can not be moved.
You also should note that not to cross nested tag pairs when you write HTML tags.
Example:
You do not need to describe html, head, or body tags in HTML portlets.
When you write scripts in JavaScript, read the following sections carefully in the Secure Cording Guidelines:
Avoid Using Cross-Site Scripting
