Can information be passed between portlets?
Portlets can be connected to produce integrated Web-based applications, even when the portlets publish data from different systems. By defining portlet parameters and associating them with page parameters and events, the page designer can wire portlets and pages together. Selecting content or submitting an event in one portlet can actually drive the content and display of other portlets and control navigation between pages. Portlets can also be wired to page parameters, so that all the portlets on a page respond to a single customization or parameter passed on a page request.
