Hi, I have struggled with this for sometime now and found an interesting thing. If I replace the filter class "org.apache.struts2.sitemesh.FreemarkerPageFilter" with "com.opensymphony.module.sitemesh.filter.PageFilter" in the web.xml, the "page" content (title, head, body elements) are being parsed and inserted within the decorator. However, with this approach, I am not able to use Freemarker style include tags within the decorator "main.jsp (that I used)" for example, <#assign page=JspTaglibs["http://www.opensymphony.com/sitemesh/page";]> or the OGNL style <@decorator.head/>. I had to revert back to <[EMAIL PROTECTED] file="header1.dec"%>, <[EMAIL PROTECTED] prefix="decorator" uri="http://www.opensymphony.com/sitemesh/decorator"; %> and <decorator:head> respectively in the decorators.
So, the problem I think is with the FreemarkerPageFilter class. Hope this helps. orshoe wrote: > > I am having the exact same problem, except I am also using Freemarker > along with Sitemesh and Struts 2.
