Folder Listing as a Plone Portlet Mini-HOWTO (draft)
http://web.irtnog.org/Members/xenophon/plone/portlet-folder-contents This folder listing portlet displays the title of the folder, its description, and a list of each item in the folder. Mousing over each link pops up its description in browsers that understand the title anchor (A) tag attribute. Your comments and suggestions are greatly appreciated! Best wishes, Matthew

Plone now uses catalog queries to build folder listings, it avoids waking up all objects and slow down the server response. Consider using it, your portlet as it is written now can slow down the browsing of a folder containing a large amount of objects. HTH,
