I have a simple page definition that looks like this: -------------- <tiles:insert page="basicLayout.jsp"> <tiles:put name="title" value="Music Index Home"/> <tiles:put name="header" value="header.jsp"/> <tiles:put name="footer" value="footer.jsp"/> <tiles:put name="sidebar" value="menu.jsp"/> <tiles:put name="body" value="mainBody.jsp"/> </tiles:insert> --------------
I'm thinking that it might be good to code "header.jsp" so it shows the "title" string, by reference, instead of hard-coded, so I don't have to write it twice, in two different places. I would have to somehow "pass" the value provided for the "title" attribute to "header.jsp" so it can read it as a request attribute, possibly. What are the various ways I could achieve this (hopefully without using scriptlets)? Is this a reasonable thing to do? If I could send "request parameters" or "attributes" with "tiles:insert", then with my "tiles:insert" tag for the "header" attribute, I could pass the output of "tiles:getAsString" to get the "title" field. I don't know if this is possible, however. -- =================================================================== David M.
