Link to JavaScript files i.s.o copying them into deployed EGL RUI HTML (Dynamic Loading)

When deploying an EGL RUI handler to an HTML file, all referenced JavaScript files are copied into the HTML.

This makes the HTML really large, increasing load time and initial response in the browser.

It also causes duplication of widget JavaScript when there are multiple handlers deployed, each to it's own HTML.

    This RFE's Headline was changed after submission to reflect the headline of an internal request we were already considering, but will now track here.

    Rich UI dynamic loading is now available in fix pack 8.0.1.2.

    Thank you for this input. We are looking at an enhancement to provide RUI Developers with the ability to dynamically load individual RUI Handlers, instead of creating a single HTML file with all of the RUIHandlers statically 'linked'. We hope to deliver this in an update to version 8.

    Agree with Aaron. RUI deployment to WebSphere Portal is a known request (from APIS IT). This decomposition of the generated HTML file would be one of the first prereqs for such a possibility.

    This would be valuable in deploying to WAS portal as it is now currently necessary to rip out all the redundant EGL widgets so that duplicates are not created with each RUI application added to the Portal
