An external-facing portal can be designed to be light - that is, consume fewer resources for users that have lower-bandwidth connections to the Internet. To reduce required resources, the light framework page and its navigation iViews do not use HTMLB and client-side eventing (EPCM) JavaScript.
To take full advantage of this benefit, adhere to the following guidelines when deploying content to an external-facing portal:
Use static content as much as possible.
Avoid HTMLB.
Avoid client-side eventing (in the portalapp.xml , specify an EPCFLevel value of 0 for no eventing, if possible).
Use the navigation tag library for navigation links.
Do not create Related Links for iViews and pages.
Make sure that any dynamic navigation iViews for your content are also light.
