    Note that the example above depends on what you have named the fields in your authoring templates. In any line above that starts with: <AptrixCmpnt

    <AptrixCmpnt context="autoFill" key="Title" type="content"/>

    Those may be different in your implementation. The rest are common across WCM 5.1

    Note that for WCM 6.1, the tag, AptrixCmpnt becomes element. I assume this would work for WCM 6.1 also with just some minor changes.
