Nikhil,

Any version of Tiles/Struts up through version 1.2.4 only allows for a Tile
to be accessed inside Struts.  In the upcoming version 1.3.X branch, tiles
will be in a stand-alone jar so it MIGHT include a filter or web.xml mapping
instructions to allow external (without requiring Struts) access to a tile.
I checked the SVN for the tiles standalone but I don't see anything like
that in the Trunk but there is something in the Sandbox.  See the example
servlet code at:
http://svn.apache.org/viewcvs.cgi/struts/sandbox/trunk/tiles/src/java/org/ap
ache/tiles/servlets/TilesServlet.java?rev=307013&view=markup

For the moment, your only option is to forward to a JSP and have that JSP
include the tile definition (so the tile will show 'inside' that JSP).  That
makes a tile just like an html page or a JSP.  See the Dumoulin Tiles
Advanced Features PDF (on the main site under the Tiles Tag Developer Guide)
if you need examples of how to make a JSP pull in and display a tile
definition (or previous list posts, some of which were by me months ago).


Regards,
David

Subject: Redirect to tile


Hi All,
 I have one question.
 There is one action
<action path="/*actionPath*"
 name="someForm">
<forward name="success" path="*tileName*" redirect="true"/>
</action>
 in tiles config file I have written definition for *tileName*.
 Now when this action is called it displays proper page, but how redirect to
a tile works, because in the adress bar stilll the name for action is
displayed but if we redirect to another action that action's name is
displayed in the adressbar.
 Can we access tiles directly without action????

Thanks & Ragards,
