Maybe this example can help you decide, if <jsp:include> is sufficient for you: http://struts.sourceforge.net/strutsdialogs/dialogaction-logincontrolsample.html It has link to this live demo (can be offline from time to time, since this is a shared Tomcat): http://www.superinterface.com/strutsdialog/embeddedmasterpage-tomcat.do The "Sign In" box is an included Struts component. Notice, that it knows nothing about master page, and master page knows nothing about the component.
