Hi,

I thought that Portlets where designed to "proxy" requests between client-si
de and internal servers and to do all the conversion to display correctly th
at information to the browser.
I mean that if you have an Excel document internally accesible by the Portal
 Sever then you could use the Excel Document Viewer Portlet to view that doc
ument at the client side without having Excel installed on the local system.
I was surprised to check that it doesn't work this way, it seems that the Do
cument viewer porlet only implements a simple IFRAME.

Please, could you confirm this?

thanks in advance,

Lotus Document Viewer portlet works with Lotus notes view portlet, both port
let have to be present on the same page, so you click a document on the view
 portlet which opens in the document viewer portlet. By default, the Lotus D
ocument Viewer portlet supp
orts single sign-on (SSO) so make sure you sso enabled before you can use it
 otherwise it will not work.
