AppFuse at the Denver JBoss User Group

Last night, I presented "Seven Simple Reasons to use AppFuse" at the Denver JBoss User Group. I was definitely surprised to present this talk to a packed room of developers. One person joked afterwards that there might've been a lot of Microsoft folks there, all fearing that Vista was going to doom their future. It was at a Microsoft building, so I guess it's possible. This presentation is similar to my developerWorks article with the same title.

Not sure if this is the right place for this questions but I'm very new to portal development (Vignette) and need some assistance... I am building a custom potlet that contains a collapsable menu of categories and sub categories.

When I expand the categories to reveal thier initally hidden subcategories, the containing portlet expands accordingly but will not budge any portlets below it... in effect the menu expands "behind" any portlet just below it...

I found the contentInit() function that manages the page layout for drag and dropping portlets... if I remove this function and set the portlet css class positioning to relative... everything works fine, but then, of course, I have no drag and drop capability... that wouldn't be so bad but I can't go without... so I need to find a way to override or tweak the rendering in this function so I can both drag and drop portlets as well as have the other portlets set to relative positioning so they'll reposition as the menu expands and contracts.

ANY information is helpful...

Thanks!
