Thank you for your precious help but I still have problems…
I am a beginner but when I try this code (my script is an HTML-FTL webscript without JS, I put it into the document details as a region-script component - <@region id="test" scope="template" protected=true /> - this region is a component script that simply calls my alfresco script by the connector).
My alfresco "workflow-list" script:

<table cellspacing=0 cellpadding=2>

 <#list workflow.assignedTasks as t>
<br/>
 
<#if t.package == "page.url.args.nodeRef">
<div class="task-transitions">
         <#list t.transitions as transition>
                 <li>
         <span class="link" <a href="http://localhost:8080/alfresco/service/api/workflow/task/end/${t.id}/${transition.id}?alf_method=post " title="transitions">${transition.label?html}</a></span>

</li>
                    </#list>
         </div> <#else>
</#if>  
      </#list>
</table>‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

I always get "error 500 - undefined term "page", I try also ${page.url.args.nodeRef} with and without " " but still get errors…. why?
Must I define a variable "page" inside the FTL or writing a javascript file? But… if so what is the correct javascript file?

Thankyou again…
regards,

The page.url.args.nodeRef statement should be on the web-tier, i.e. in the Share webscript that calls your remote one. You need to pass the nodeRef through to the Repository-tier webscript (the one you're seeing the problem with) and access it via args.nodeRef.

Thanks,
Mike

Hi Mike, Thank You for the reply and I spent almost 2 days ripping my hair to pass the parameter for dashlet and finally I found your reply for this post and it works.

I should have googled with correct keyword to get this thread. Anyhow it is going to be interesting for me from now.

1000 Thanks
