It the example below, "background" is available *only* in the test.jsp file. If I try to use <tiles:useAttribute> in any other jsp file in that particular tiles-definition, I get an exception saying that "background" isn't in any context. Setting various context in the definition had no effect. I got around this by using the <tiles:useAttribute> in the test.jsp file and then setting a session attribute that was then visible by the rest of the files.

Is there any exception ? What is the resulting html source code ? Also, you can try following in your "/templates/test.jsp" if you have some trouble with quotes : <tiles:useAttribute name="background" /> <BODY background="<%=background%>" > Cedric "Robert D.
