I am also using Portal 2.4 and Java 5.0 and can expand the page nodes (test, admin, etc) without any problem. The thing is, you don't actually need to expand the page nodes. If you click on the page node (such as 'default'), the left side of the window displays the portlet windows and if you click on one of them you get the same data as if you clicked on them in the tree view (after expanding the page node). Which OS and broswer are you using? At this moment I am using Windows XP and Firefox 1.5. View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=3972071#...
