Using <template:put> tag show below is trying to put an image file as
include into the JSP.template, then asking the JSP.template to compile.
What you really want to display is the String '/images/example.gif'. So you
have to specify a my.JSP that contained the text '/images/example.gif',
therefore you would need to use a html <img src="<template:get>" > or have
the my.JSP file contain the <html:img> tag.
If you only have a few images that can be displayed and depending on what
you use to determine to display them, wrapping the <img> tags in
<logic:present> tags might be a solution.

Subject: Templates & Images
Hi There,
I'm working on a Struts powered site right now and have come up against a
bit of a problem. I'm using the templating tags to give my pages a uniform
look and feel. However I'd like to be able to insert images into my
template. I figured the best way would be as follows:
<template:insert template='/template.jsp'>
<template:put name='image' content='/images/example.gif' direct='true' />
</template:insert>
But this begs the question, how do you insert the content into the src
attribute of the image tag? I suppose I could put the whole image tag into
the template but I'd rather avoid embedding content in the above code.
Can anyone suggest a best way forward?
Many thanks,
-James
