Allan Schweitz commented on TILES-336:
--------------------------------------
You're right insertAttribute is the more obvious one. However I would like this
feature even for putAttribute. The reason being the in my particular case the
jsp's are generated by a cms and the content or value of a put attribute maybe
sometimes empty and it that cause I would like the putAttribute tag to fall
back on a default value. I guess this could also be managed by the
insertAttribute which should check not only whether there is an attribute or
not, but also whether the attribute is empty or not.

> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: tiles-jsp (jsp support)
> Environment: Any
> Reporter: Allan Schweitz
> Priority: Minor
>
> When I use the putAttribute tag in a jsp page I would like to give it a
> default value if it cannot find the specified attribute. This could be done
> by maybe place the default content in the body of the tag or by having a
> special default attribute added to the tag. Of course we could use some
> conditional statements to achieve the same, but if it could be automatically
> handled by the tag that would result in much cleaner code.
> Thanks,
