Agreed. It was not really a useful sample; it was a simplified example as I was testing to illustrate my question about the nesting. After Vadim's response, I understand a little more. > If you're not (I assume hardcoding was just > temporary) you should have access to the parameter from where it was set - > ie, using a matcher wildcard, or an action, etc. Right. What I wasn't seeing was a substition in the generator below it and couldn't understand why. > What was the final functionality you were looking for? A way to dynamically choose/load skins and other config information that was particular to a client. Eventually that'll be driven from a session or cookie setting but I wanted to get the snippet in place first, so I thought I could do that all in the matcher itself. I've only just figured out that a better pattern is: <map:resources> <map:resource name="clientconfig"> <map:generate src="config/{client}.xml" type="file" /> <map:serialize type="xml"/> </map:resource> </map:resources> <map:match pattern="mypage"> <map:call resource="clientconfig"> <map:parameter name="client" value="magnet" /> </map:call> </map:match> And next I'll try to change the matcher to something that'll give me the client value.
