Using MashZone NextGen Attributes in Mashups
You can use attributes defined for MashZone NextGen to provide input parameters or other variables in mashups. This is also sometimes called server-side binding or server templating.
You declare variables for MashZone NextGen attributes, just as you would for any other variable. The value for the variable is resolved by the MashZone NextGen Server at run-time from a MashZone NextGen attribute.
MashZone NextGen attributes can be defined for individual users, at a global level, within a user session or for a specifc HTTP header or cookie for a specific request. You can also define artifact attributes as extensions for specific mashables or mashups.
Mashup support for MashZone NextGen attributes is:
*Full support for MashZone NextGen user and global attributes. See MashZone NextGen Global and User Attributes for details.
For example, some mashable information sources require authentication or application IDs. These may be for a specific user or all users may use a single ID.
*Partial support MashZone NextGen session attributes. See MashZone NextGen Session Attributes for details.
*No support for request header or cookie attributes.
*No support for artifact attributes.
