Tapestry looks for the properties file in the same folder as the spec. Tapestry creates a "fake" spec for specless pages/components and it is in the same folder as the application specification. Nothing is added to the filesystem - a specification object is created with it's location set.
And that's why the poperties file is sought where it is. A nicer touch would be to create the faker in the same folder as the template! Geoff PS. If you don't have a .application file that folder is /WEB-INF On 1/5/06, Michael Melvin <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Aha!
