If you mean that you want to put a sub-tile inside another tile, you could make something like this:
<snip> <definition name=".mainLayout" page="/tiles/mainLayout.jsp"> <put name="header" value="/tiles/header.jsp"> <put name="footer" value="/tiles/footer.jsp"> <put name="title" value="My Title"/> <!-- I modified this piece!!! --> <put name="body" value=".nestedLayout"/> </definition> <definition name=".nestedLayout" extends=".mainLayout"> <put name="body" value="/tiles/nestedLayout.jsp"/> <put name="nestedBody" value=".nested1"/> </definition> <definition name=".nested1" extends=".nestedLayout"> <put name="title" value="nested page"/> <put name="nestedBody" value="/tiles/nested1.jsp"/> </definition> </snip> In other words you can use the "<put>" element not only with JSP pages but also with other definitions. That is you can make "definitions of definitions" in a nested fashion. If you instead wish to make dynamic tiles definitions, maybe you could be interested in this thread: http://mail-archives.apache.org/eyebrowse/ReadMsg?listId=241&msgNo=114600 Ciao Antonio Petrelli Bill Schneider wrote: > I'm trying to do something with Tiles like this: > > <definition name=".mainLayout" page="/tiles/mainLayout.jsp"> > <put name="header" value="/tiles/header.jsp"> > <put name="footer" value="/tiles/footer.jsp"> > <put name="title" value="${title}"/> > <put name="body" value="${body}"/> > </definition> > > <definition name=".nestedLayout" extends=".mainLayout"> > <put name="body" value="/tiles/nestedLayout.jsp"/> > <put name="nestedBody" value="${nestedBody}"/> > </definition> > > <definition name=".nested1" extends=".nestedLayout"> > <put name="title" value="nested page"/> > <put name="nestedBody" value="/tiles/nested1.jsp"/> > </definition> > > When ".nested1" is displayed, I see the main layout as expected, with the proper title; and nestedLayout.jsp gets included as the body.

Is there a better way to export attributes or otherwise preserve the current Tiles context through a tiles:insert or tiles:get? > > -- Bill --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
