Aidas,
How do I define that body definition in the tiles-def.xml?
This is my tiles-def,
<definition name="site.mainLayout" path="/layouts/classicLayout.jsp">
<put name="title" value="The Portal" />
<put name="header" value="/tiles/common/header.jsp" />
<put name="menu" value="site.menu.bar" />
<put name="footer" value="/tiles/common/footer.jsp" />
<put name="body" value="/tiles/body.jsp" />
</definition>
<!-- ======================================================= -->
<!-- Index page definition -->
<!-- ======================================================= -->
<!-- This definition inherits from the main definition.
It overload the page title, and the body used.
Use the same mechanism to define new pages sharing common
properties (here header, menu, footer, layout)
-->
<definition name="site.index.page" extends="site.mainLayout" >
<put name="title" value="The Portal" />
<put name="body" value="/tiles/body.jsp" />
</definition>
<definition name="site.login.page" extends="site.mainLayout" >
<put name="title" value="The Portal Login" />
<put name="body" value="/portal/login.jsp" />
</definition>
Thanks,
Peter
