Some useful notes :)

p_p_lifecycle

p_p_lifecycle=0 > render url

p_p_lifecycle=1 > action url

p_p_lifecycle=2 > serveresource url

you might be have seen p_p_lifecycle in query string many times BUT might be not knowing exactly what is each value exactly mean

It is important to know what are the possible values for p_plifecycle & how they can be helpful, might be useful in forming friendly urls (of Freindly url routes feature of Liferay)
