+<section name="Welcome To Tiles">
+ <p>Welcome to the Struts Tiles subproject. Tiles is a templating
+ framework. It can be used to create a common look & feel for a web
site or
+ application and to create reusable view components. This site will give
you
+ all the information you need to get started.</p>
+</section>
+
+<section name="Tiles Features" href="Features">
+ <ul>
+ <li>Screen definitions
+ <ul>
+ <li>Create a screen by assembling
+ <strong><em>Tiles</em></strong> : header, footer,
+ menu, body, etc.
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ Definitions can take place :
+ <ul>
+ <li>in a centralized xml file</li>
+ <li>directly in jsp pages</li>
+ <li>programatically in struts actions</li>
+ </ul>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ Definitions provide an inheritance
+ mechanism : a definition can extend another one,
+ and override parameters.
+ </li>
+ </ul>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ Layouts
+ <ul>
+ <li>
+ Define common page layouts and reuse
+ them across your web site.
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ Define menu layouts, and use them by
+ passing lists of items and links.
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ Define a portal layout, use it by
+ passing a list of <strong><em>Tiles</em></strong>
+ (pages) to show.
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ Reuse existing layouts, or define
+ your own.
+ </li>
+ </ul>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ Dynamic page building
+ <ul>
+ <li>
+ Tiles can be gathered dynamically during
+ page reload. It is possible to change any attribute:
+ layout, list of Tiles in portal, list of menu
+ items, etc.
+ </li>
+ </ul>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ Reuse of <strong><em>Tiles</em></strong> /
+ Components
+ <ul>
+ <li>
+ If well defined, a
+ <strong><em>Tile</em></strong> can be reused across multiple
+ applications.
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ Dynamic attributes are used to
+ parameterize <em><strong>Tiles</strong></em>.
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ It is possible to define a library of
+ reusable <em><strong>Tiles</strong></em>.
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ Build a page by assembling predefined
+ components, giving them appropriate parameters.
+ </li>
+ </ul>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ Internationalization (i18n)
+ </li>
+ <ul>
+ <li>
+ It is possible to load different tiles
+ according to Locale.
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ A mechanism similar to Java properties
+ files is used for definitions files: you can have one
+ definition file per Locale. The appropriate definition is
+ loaded according to the current Locale.
+ </li>
+ </ul>
+ <li>
+ Multi-channels
+ </li>
+ <ul>
+ <li>
+ It is possible to load different Tiles
+ according to a key.
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ For example, the key could be user provilege,
+ browser type, arbitrary name stored in session, etc.
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ A mechanism similar to Java properties
+ files is used for definitions files: you can have one
+ definition file per key. The appropriate definition is
+ loaded according to the key.
+ </li>
