Dashlets only output page "snippets" of HTML i.e. they already exist within an HTML page body (much like portlets) so your page only needs the following content to display the message:


WELCOME

OK can you give any more information - are you putting the <dashlet> config in the web-client-config-custom.xml? or the original web-client-config.xml? I assume you've put the JSP in the correct location in the exploded WAR file?

Thanks,

Kevin

i only edit web-client-conf.xml

<dashlet id="tasks-todo" label-id="my_tasks_todo_title" description-id="my_tasks_todo_desc"
jsp="/jsp/dashboards/dashlets/aniversarios.jsp" allow-narrow="false" />

my JSP is under jsp/dashboards/dashlets/…..

<f:verbatim>
WELCOME
</f:verbatim>

OK sounds like your config is correct. Yes my appologies I forgot to mention that the dashlet JSP page snippet must be JSF components only. So placing your HTML output within the f:verbatim is essential. It's annoying but an artifact of the JSF UI framework we use - appologies for not making that clearer! You can use any combination of JSF components in the dashlet, such as hutputText and so on.
