Hello: I am a newbie to struts and am trying to get a handle on tiles:getAsString tag. I am having a problem in that is complains that the attribute I am trying to get does not exist.
Here is what I have in my tiles-defs.xml: <tiles-definitions> <!-- Base Tiles Definition --> <definition name="base.definition" path="/layout.jsp"> <put name="leftNav" value="/leftNav.jsp" /> <put name="header" value="/header.jsp" /> <put name="footer" value="/footer.jsp" /> </definition> <!-- Tiles definition of home page --> <definition name="page.home" extends="base.definition"> <put name="pageTitle" value="Welcome" /> <put name="body" value="/home.jsp" /> </definition> </tiles-definitions> I have an index.jsp that loads the page.home defintion: <[EMAIL PROTECTED] uri="/WEB-INF/struts-tiles.tld" prefix="tiles" %> <tiles:insert definition="page.home" /> Here is the layout.jsp (trimmed): <[EMAIL PROTECTED] language="java" %> <[EMAIL PROTECTED] file="/imports.jsp" %> <[EMAIL PROTECTED] uri="http://jakarta.apache.org/struts/tags-html" prefix="html" %> <[EMAIL PROTECTED] uri="http://jakarta.apache.org/struts/tags-tiles" prefix="tiles" %> <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN"> <html:html locale="true"> <body background="/images/pageBackground.gif"> <table border="0" width="100%" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"> <tr> <td align="right" valign="top" width="150"><tiles:insert attribute="leftNav" /></td> <td valign="top"><html:img border="0" height="700" src="/images/transparent1x1.gif" width="10" /></td> <td align="left" valign="top"><tiles:insert attribute="header" /><tiles:insert attribute="body" /><tiles:insert attribute="footer" /></td> </tr> </table> </body> </html:html> Here is the header.jsp (trimmed): <[EMAIL PROTECTED] language="java" %> <[EMAIL PROTECTED] file="/imports.jsp" %> <[EMAIL PROTECTED] uri="http://jakarta.apache.org/struts/tags-html" prefix="html" %> <[EMAIL PROTECTED] uri="http://jakarta.apache.org/struts/tags-tiles" prefix="tiles" %> <table> <tr> <td class="pageTitle"><tiles:getAsString name="pageTitle" /></td> </tr> When I try to load the page (You can see what I have at http://dev.crcbusinessservices.com/crcgroup/index.jsp) I get this error in the tomcat log: SEVERE: ServletException in '/layout.jsp': ServletException in '/header.jsp': Error - tag.getAsString : attribute 'pageTitle' not found in context.
