Overview

This tag is very important as many of the Widgets utilise this tag for writing out necessary Javascript and CSS code for the page. It also handles some behind the scenes javascript code necessary for information gathering on the page and writes in the base ref, that all the files are relative to.

Sample

<Portlet:Header/>

How they work

When this tag is encountered it writes inline HTML and javascript code. The header.js and errorpopup.js(used by the raiseErrors tag) are written into the header block. The baseref that the entire site is relative to is also written.
