If you are using the XML definition factory then you should call the definition instead of the jsp. So in your JSP to call the definition it should look like this:
<tiles:insert definition="mainLayout " flush="true"/> mainLayout then will provide the link to Layout.jsp do to the "path" attribute. Then your Layout.jsp will have access to the attributes. When I use useAttribute I give the bean an id (optional it will be the name of the attribute if not included) like this (the scope is optional - but request will allow other embedded jsps have access to the bean). <tiles:useAttribute id="head" name="head" scope="request"/> Cal -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Saturday, July 19, 2003 06:26 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Tiles: attribute 'head' not found in context Hi list, I have a problem getting tiles definitions to work (using Struts 1.1). It works fine, when I use <tiles:put name="head" value="Kopf.jsp" /> in my JSP pages, but not with the XML: Here is the code in my tiles-defs.xml <definition name="mainLayout" path="Layout.jsp"> <put name="head" value="MeinKopf" /> </definition> And here is Layout.jsp: <%@ taglib uri="/WEB-INF/struts-tiles.tld" prefix="tiles" %> <tiles:useAttribute name="head"/> And here is the JSP I use to call Layout.jsp: <%@ taglib uri="/WEB-INF/struts-tiles.tld" prefix="tiles" %> <tiles:insert page="Layout.jsp" flush="true"> </tiles:insert> The error I get is: [ServletException in:Layout.jsp] Error - tag useAttribute : attribute 'head' not found in context. Check tag syntax' If I call Layout.jsp right away, I get: ServletException: Error - tag useAttribute : no tiles context found --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Learn more about Paymentech's payment processing services at www.paymentech.com THIS MESSAGE IS CONFIDENTIAL.
