I'm interested in getting attributes from the requested page(body) into the navigation tile. This attribute will not be available in the request but in the requested page instead. I'm using XML type definitions and a TilesController to dynamically select the body, so web programmers can add new site pages by writing the body and setting the navigation attribute.
Is there a tag that will allow web programmers to specify a navigation attribute in the body that can be pulled into the navigation tile?

I think this is perfectly legal :-) In psuedo code the form is like this: <html:form action="/nestBeanArray"> <html:text property="title"/> <html:text property="subTitle"/> <nested:iterate id="item" indexId="ind" property="childForms"> Child[<c:out value="${ind}"/>] bean Title: <nested:text property="title"/> Child[<c:out value="${ind}"/>] bean subTitle: <nested:text property="subTitle"/> </nested:iterate> </html:form> Where the ActionForm beans are like this: parentFormBean{ String title String subTitle List childFormBeans } childFormBean{ String title String subtitle } The accessor methods to set childForms use the setIndexedProperty pattern. If I populate the List in the parentFormBean everything works, even dynamically adding additional childFormBeans (as long as the list index is not out of bounds) When I do the above without nested objects, i.e. with primitives, the getter and setter of the parentFormBean are used to modify entries in the list.. in which case I can dynamically create new objects. The nested tags seem to access objects in the list directly... so where to instantiate new ones? regards, Peter On Thu, 2005-01-20 at 09:42 -0700, Jim Barrows wrote: > On Thu, 20 Jan 2005 17:30:29 +0100, Peter Maas <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > In one form... using nested tags.
