<tiles:insert attribute="header" flush="true"/> <tiles:insert attribute="menubar" flush="true"/> <tiles:insert attribute="body" flush="true"/>
That is I want first the header tile to be layed out, then the menu tile and finally the body tile.
The definition for the page in the tiles-def.xml file is
<definition name=".customer.page" path="/WEB-INF/layout.jsp" >
<put name="header" value="/WEB-INF/header.jsp" />
<put name="menu" value=".menu" />
<put name="body" value="/WEB-INF/customer.jsp" />
</definition><definition name=".menu" path="" controllerUrl="/admin/menu.do"> </definition>
<definition name=".menubar1" path="/WEB-INF/menu.jsp">
<putList name="menu" >
<item value="Search"
link="/admin/search.do"
classtype="org.apache.struts.tiles.beans.SimpleMenuItem"
tooltip="Search for customers" />
</definition>Note that the menu uses an action to determine whether the current logged on user should have access to this item. In fact I have several menubars and the action forwards tot he relevant one for the user.
the struts-config mapping is
<action path="/admin/menu" type="com.CheckRoleAction">
<forward name="success" path=".menubar1"/>
<forward name="failure" path=".error"/>
</action>Now all this works perfectly EXCEPT that the order of the tiles is wrong. The menu tile is displayed before the header tile. If i change my layout to
<tiles:insert attribute="header" flush="true"/> <tiles:insert attribute="body" flush="true"/> <tiles:insert attribute="menubar" flush="true"/>
then everything works Ok. This is only a problem when using a tiles controller and I am sure it was working correctly in struts 1.0 ( in fact i am certain it was ok even in the 1.1 betas)
I was going to raise this in the bug database if everything here is OK
thanks
