Using Liferay Util Get URL

The get URL tag scrapes the URL provided by the url attribute. If a value is provided for the var attribute, the content from the screen scrape is scoped to that variable. Otherwise, the scraped content is displayed where the taglib is used.

A basic configuration for the <liferay-util:get-url> tag is shown below:

<liferay-util:get-url url="https://www.liferay.com/" />

Here is an example that uses the var attribute:

<liferay-util:get-url url="https://www.liferay.com/" var="Liferay" />

<div>
				<h2>We borrowed <a href="https://www.liferay.com/">Liferay</a>. Here it is.</h2>

				<div class="Liferay">
								<%= Liferay %>
				</div>
</div>

Now you know how to use the <liferay-util:get-url> tag to scrape URLs.
