Configure page list servlet client configurations
Overview
You can define PageListServlet configuration information in the IBM Web Extensions file. The IBM Web Extensions file is created and stored in the Web Applications archive (WAR) file by the.To configure and implement page lists:
- To configure page list information,
- Add the callPage() method to your servlet to invoke a

- callPage(String pageName, HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse
response)
where the method arguments are:
- pageName
- A page name defined in the PageListServlet configuration
- request

- response
- The HttpServletResponse object
- callPage(String mlName, String pageName, HttpServletRequest request,
HttpServletResponse response)
where the method arguments are:
- mlName
- A markup language type
- pageName
- A page name defined in the PageListServlet configuration
- request
- The HttpServletRequest object
- response
- The HttpServletResponse object
- callPage(String pageName, HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse
response)
