This is what I am trying to do is to populate the same nested JSP template over and over again with different page data coming from the database. This is the process I imagine:
- The user presses a link containing a pageID, which in turn gets send to Struts as a request. - The associated Action class parses and validates the request and then either returns an error page or launches a Java bean that gets the result (page content, title, etc..) <so far so good - here's the nifty part> - There is a main.jsp template that references exactly three JSPs: west.jsp, center.jsp, and east.jsp. - Each of the three templates contain only layout code and an entry like this: <html:text property="west" /> Q: Since those jsps are nested - how can I get the page content to all three (nested) jsps? Should I put the object(s) in the session or something? I'm a bit lost - any input would be appreciated...
