[09:50:49 CDT(-0500)] <b-sure> hello uPortal devs. can I trouble EricDalquist about the phantom shibb / redirect apache example?
[09:51:11 CDT(-0500)] <EricDalquist> our apache admin is out again today
[09:51:14 CDT(-0500)] <EricDalquist> sorry :/
[09:52:00 CDT(-0500)] <b-sure> oh ok. thanks. I told our admin that we could see an example. so hes got me cornered at the moment
[09:52:35 CDT(-0500)] <EricDalquist> sounds like time for some google-fu 
[09:52:39 CDT(-0500)] <EricDalquist> it is a pretty common pattern
[09:53:32 CDT(-0500)] <b-sure> yeah. thats what i'm doin now
[10:37:09 CDT(-0500)] <athena> so the classifieds portlet is using a JSP taglib that helps produce JSON
[10:37:11 CDT(-0500)] <athena> http://json-taglib.sourceforge.net/examples.html
[10:37:31 CDT(-0500)] <EricDalquist> interesting
[10:37:32 CDT(-0500)] <athena> maybe something to keep in mind when we're building small in-page JSON objects
[10:37:33 CDT(-0500)] <athena> yeah
[10:37:46 CDT(-0500)] <EricDalquist> though that seems like more work than just shoving the OM into jasckon
[10:37:49 CDT(-0500)] <EricDalquist> jackson too 
[10:37:55 CDT(-0500)] <athena> it's not in maven central, but presumably we could do the third-party library thing
[10:38:08 CDT(-0500)] <athena> well, don't think we'd want to use this for requests where the whole thing is JSON
[10:38:25 CDT(-0500)] <athena> but we have some JSP pages that are mostly HTML and we're formatting some amount of data as JSON in a script
[10:38:31 CDT(-0500)] <athena> rather than doing an AJAX call for it
[10:38:41 CDT(-0500)] <EricDalquist> ah true
[10:38:46 CDT(-0500)] <EricDalquist> that would be nice
[10:39:07 CDT(-0500)] <athena> yeah
[10:39:16 CDT(-0500)] <athena> much better than manually calculating whether to add another comma
