[jboss-user] [JBoss Portal] - Themes - Region interceptor override

[lucboudreau]

Hi, I'm developing a theme/layout for JBoss portal 2.6.2 and my objective is to change the HTML code generated for the tab navigation. Instead of ULs, I want simple As. But there is a catche... I want to change the associated JSP for my custom themes only. I don't want to change it for all themes, since this would break the other themes that come with JBoss portal.

I don't want my theme to have any impact whatsoever on the default theme because I want to keep the Admin portal isolated in it's own theme. This way, If i break something, I can always go back. Also, this gives me much more flexibility. 

What are my options ?

 - Use a different RenderSet ? (would that even work ?)
 - Override the MBean where JSPs are defined with a custom subclass ? (this is too complicated for nothing, let's keep it simple.)

The way I understood, the MBean is an interceptor which gets called when we call the taglib for region render and it overrides the output by code from the JSP.

One solution I thought of is this. Use a different tag for navigation generation. In order to do this, I need to find hot to access PortalAuthorizationManagerFactory from a JSP or taglib. Any insights ?
