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 is a pair of values with a tab content declaration; 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, you must add the value “extension.external.tab.document” 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 into the $TOMCAT_HOME/webapps/openkm folder.
