Allan Schweitz commented on TILES-336:
--------------------------------------

I guess it would be more likely be the order of processing. Something like for 
instance:
<tiles:putAttribute name="myAttribute" value="${param['someParameter']} 
">Default value</tiles:putAttribute>
So in this case if no parameter is found, value will be empty and should then 
fall back to the "Default value".
But yes you're right this can easily be done with <c:if> or <c:choose>.

Hope this makes sense.

> 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
