what excatcly are u trying to do? i guess that u have written decorator page with JSF tags... am i right?
im not sure but i think its impossible to do that:/ your decorator page must be secified in conf file (for example: mainDecorator.jsp), BUT jsf pages must be requested by somme virtual path or special extension (for ex: mainDecorator.jsf) and there is mismatch:/ sitemesh cant see mainDecorator.jsf file on your disk, so you must call decorator as mainDecorator.jsp - which cant be filtered by myFaces:/ so you can decorate jsf pages, but your decorator cant be written with jsf tags (must be pure jsp) i hope im not right;) if anyone can write decorator with jsf tags-please show us the way.. .
