Local fix
Problem summary
Problem Summary: When using element tags to reference site area objects, if the end user does not have access, the tag should not return anything, but it should not throw a NullPointerException either.
Problem conclusion
Changed WCM code to check for the null, and report out the ID of the object that is invalid. An interim fix is available for this APAR from Fix Central at: http://www.ibm.com/eserver/support/fixes/fixcentral/swgquickorde r?brandid=2&productid=Workplace%20Web%20Content%20Management&fix es=6.0.1.2-WCM-PK57341 You will need to cut/paste the entire URL into a browser to resolve the address.
