| Hi Palnil
You cannot put a portlet inside a theme. Themes are the bits and pieces around your portlet, like the toolbar, place bar, page bar and administration link bar. You can put your portlet on a page and then associate a theme with the page, but the theme does
n't (and shouldn't) know anything about your portlet.
If you want your portlet to talk to other portlets, you can use Cooperative Portlets and Portlet Wiring. There is a good article and example on using Cooperative Portlets with the JSR 168 standard at:
http://www-128.ibm.com/developerwor...y/0412_roy.html
If you are still using the IBM Portlet API, you could consider using Click-to-Action as well. There is good documentation in the Portal Infocenter at:
