WSRP Producer portlet resources are not proxied through the Consumer Portlet
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: JBPORTAL-2471
                 URL: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBPORTAL-2471
             Project: JBoss Portal
          Issue Type: Bug
      Security Level: Public (Everyone can see)
          Components: Portal WSRP
    Affects Versions: 2.7.2 Final
         Environment: Setup an aggregation tier Portal with a WSRP Consumer portlet configured to look at another service tier Portal with a remotable portlet (WSRP Producer)
            Reporter: Mat Allen
            Assignee: Chris Laprun


When a browser requests the WSRP Consumer, the aggregation layer Portal proxies the request to the WSRP Producer (service layer Portal) providing the html back to the browser.  The problem is that the resource url's (images, css and js) in the html all contain direct url's to the Producer server/portlet, when they should be being proxied through the Consumer Portlet either through a resource serving portlet or better still, a restful url to support further relative resources.

The issue can be seen clearly when using Firefox with the Firebug plugin to view the http requests.

The WSRP spec (1.0 and 2.0) states that if a Producer and Consumer are divided by a firewall, a client browser would still be able to use the portlet:

search for "the Producer may be shielded from the client via a firewall"
