Add JSP to portlet Liferay

Question

i have to display a JPS inside the Document and Media portlet in liferay.

I have define an action class: CmisSearchPortletAction

public class CmisSearchPortletAction extends BaseStrutsPortletAction {
    @Override
    public void processAction(StrutsPortletAction originalStrutsPortletAction, PortletConfig portletConfig, ActionRequest actionRequest, ActionResponse actionResponse) throws Exception {
        // TODO
    }
    @Override
    public String render(StrutsPortletAction originalStrutsPortletAction,PortletConfig portletConfig,RenderRequest renderRequest, RenderResponse renderResponse) throws Exception {
        renderRequest.setAttribute("name", "World");
        return "/portlet/document_library/cmis_search.jsp";
    }
}

I add to /html/portlet/document_library/toolbar.jsp the code to execute my action:

<span id="<portlet:namespace />searchButtonContainer">
    <liferay-util:include page="/html/portlet/document_library/search_button.jsp" />
</span>

I create the page /html/portlet/document_library/search_button.jsp

<%@ include file="/html/portlet/document_library/init.jsp" %>

<liferay-ui:icon-menu align="left" direction="down" icon="" message="search" showExpanded="<%= false %>" showWhenSingleIcon="<%= true %>">

    <portlet:renderURL var="urlSearch">
        <portlet:param name="struts_action" value="/document_library/cmis_search" />
        <portlet:param name="redirect" value="<%= currentURL %>" />
    </portlet:renderURL>

    <liferay-ui:icon image="add_instance" message='<%="Busqueda Avanzada"%>' url="<%= urlSearch %>" />

</liferay-ui:icon-menu>

And finally, my JPS action (cmis_search.jsp):

<%@ include file="/html/portlet/document_library/init.jsp" %>
<%  String name = (String)request.getAttribute("name"); %>
Hello <%= name %>!

When I click the Search button my action (CmisSearchPortletAction) is executed and i can view the JSP (cmis_search.jsp) in liferay, but here is the problem.

The content is not inside the 'Document and media' portlet. How can I do this?.

I Want to move the red one to the docs and media portlet like in this img

to display xxx.JSP inside the Document and Media portlet in liferay

Document and Media portlet's view.jsp page is in /html/portlet/document_library directory. You can extend/override it with a jsp hook.

I may use <liferay-util:include page="xxx.jsp" /> in it in an appropriate place.

Here is how you can do it.
