Enterprise Portal click-across functionality lets you create events that start when a user clicks the content in a portlet table. For example, a user can click a grid value in one portlet to refresh another portlet’s content on the page using the value as a parameter to be applied to the refreshed portlet. Event generation occurs entirely within the context of the browser, with the browser triggering portlet refreshes.
In Enterprise Portal 6.1, the click-across functionality has been extended to include server-side click-across, which lets you replace a portlet’s content that is the source of an event with another portlet’s content. You can use server-side click-across to build drill-down portlets that display data at a lower level derived from one or more portlets built from a source different than the source of the event-generating top-level portlet.
Server-side click-across is implemented in the Define Events wizard, which lets you create both client-side and server-side click across events.
