besacly you have two options
1
make a pages which pulls stuff in like header footer etc
2
make a pages which gets decorated with a header and footer

both will work
i like option 2 because my page stays very clean. it will not know anything about headers or footers.
it just needs to know stuff about the content of that pages.

a second thing is you will be more flexible for the future. lets say you want a print page. which is the same as the normal page but without a footer and header and menu.
with option 2 you don't need to change your pages.

1 option is more simpel and less config... but all the config you get for free with appfuse!! (sound like a commercial ;) )

Tnx tibi,
In fact my header and footers are static (images and ...) so CSS fits like a glove for me. Otherwise what are the drawbacks of simply importing JSP snippets as header and footer with their own styling?
