Not sure if this is what you're asking but here's a quick example that
shows how to access the information stored in the tiles-defs.xml in a
file other than your layout page....
# Extract from tiles-defs.xml #
--------------------------------------------
<definition name=".public.welcome" path="/WEB-INF/pages/layout.jsp">
<put name="title" value="My home page"/>
<put name="content" value="/WEB-INF/pages/content.jsp"/>
<put name="somepage" value="/WEB-INF/pages/somepage.jsp"/>
</definition>
# Extract from layout.jsp #
-------------------------------------
<tiles:importAttribute/>
<h1><tiles:getAsString name="title"/></h1>
<tiles:insert attribute="content">
<tiles:put name="somepage" value="${somepage}"/>
</tiles:insert>
# Extract from content.jsp #
------------------------------------
<tiles:importAttribute name="somepage"/>
<tiles:insert attribute="somepage"/>
Hope that helps,
Tim Christopher
