this is exactly what I want but I don't know how to do it!

could you give me some hints?

I've been playing with several portlets to do this without success; I
didn't any
modification in the portlets (code) beside what is presented in theme management
interface, that is, I only changed options in portlets.

for example, the Document portlet in CPS Default theme has an option
'Render the container'; I thought this could help me but I wasn't able
to get what I wanted.

I really tried to solve this alone, but failed :-(

I would appreciate any help on this. I have visited many CPS sites
around the world (in fact, many in .fr) and I saw nice sites, like
Chalmers University site (www.chalmers.se). Of course, JM is an expert
and I'm aware of my little knowledge on CPS. But I would like to do
something nice, too.

Thanks
