Passing parameters / objects to a custom component?

Is it possible to pass parameters / objects to custom components?   For example:   <@component id="custom-component-id" param="object-or-string-value" />

Hey Adam,

 

do you know, if it is possible to pass a boolean as a parameter? It tried it, but it is not working, so I'm currently passing a "true" or "false" as a string.

 

Thanks

Nikolay

KPNOnline i had some success with using JSON to transport data, for example like this

<@component id="componentid" data='{"key": "value"}' />


you have to convert this JSON string back to a hash inside the component, this can be done with the ?eval FreeMarker Built-In.
