Hi,
Sorry for this late answer, I am abroad since 2 weeks, and have some
trouble with my mails.
I see different solutions to your problem:
Sol 1:
Define different menu definition, and use them in your page definition:
<definition name="main.menu2" extends="main.menu">
<put name="section" value="string1"/>
<put name="subsection" value="string2"/>
</definition>
<definition name="page1" extends="main">
<put name="main.menu2" />
<put name="body" value="/somefolder/pageone.jsp"/>
</definition>
Sol 2:
Provide menu parameters to main layout, and let the layout pass
parameters to your menu:
<definition name="page1" extends="main">
<put name="menu.section" value="string1"/>
<put name="menu.subsection" value="string2"/>
<put name="body" value="/somefolder/pageone.jsp"/>
</definition>
in your /layout/main.jsp:
...
<tiles:insert attribute="menu" >
<tiles:put beanName="menu.section" beanScope="tiles"/>
<tiles:put beanName="menu.subsection" beanScope="tiles"/>
</tiles:insert >
...
