External tab document extension

The External Tab Document feature helps you show tab content in a properties tab based on an external URL request when a node document is selected.  

Field / Property Type Description
extension.external.tab.document List Each row consists of a pair of values declaring tab content; the format is: name;url
name1;http://localhost:8180/openkm/test.jsp
name2;http://www.openkm.com
webservices.visible.properties List To make the values of the parameter “extension.external.tab.document” accessible to all users, the value “extension.external.tab.document” must be added to the current list.
If you forget to add the property name, only administrators will be able to retrieve the value, so some extensions may produce errors for regular users.

Create a file named test.jsp and copy it to the $TOMCAT_HOME/webapps/openkm folder.
