david,
       i am sorry for not being clear.. let me repeat what i want to do... I
want to create my own login page. Since i want to use the template services,
i copied the content of my login page in template/vm/layout/default.vm. The
default.vm looks like this :

<html>
<head>
<title>Test Title</title>
</head>
<frameset rows="140,*"  border="0" framespacing="0" frameborder="0">
<frame name="main" scrolling="no" noresize src="xyz.vm"> </frameset> 
</html>

I have xyz.vm in my template/vm/navigations/html/xyz.vm directory. So i gave
the frame src path as:
"jetspeed/Web-inf/templates/vm/navigations/html/xyz.vm". This didnt work.
Then i copied in the current directory (template/vm/layout/html/xyz.vm) it
didnt work. But if i move my xyz.vm outside Web-inf directory(for example
"jetspeed/test/html/xyz.vm") xyz.vm works. the reason could be because of
web-inf directory.. 
 

hope I am clear now..

thanks
bharani.

Oh, sorry, you gave me the impression it was the layout.

So this is just a plain html page.

Then just place

src="/html/xyz.vm"

relative to your webapp root.

If you want to make use of the templating service, then you have to
place your content under WEB-INF/templates or configure your templating
service to look elsewhere.
(If you are using Velocity) you can include navigations with
$jnavigation and screens (other templates) with #parse. There are
examples of this in the distribution under WEB-INF/templates
