ok, I think I found a way throught this. I changed the
<tiles:insertAttribute>...</tiles:insertAttribute>
to <tiles:insertTemplate> and now im getting the page content renders..
Here is how the tags are now
<tiles:insertTemplate template="${pageContent}">
<tiles:putAttribute
name="sectionTitle">${sectionTitle}</tiles:putAttribute>
<tiles:putAttribute name="pageContent">${tabPane}</tiles:putAttribute>
<tiles:putAttribute name="tabs" >${tabs}</tiles:putAttribute>
<tiles:putAttribute name="activeTab" >${activeTab}</tiles:putAttribute>
</tiles:insertTemplate>
I really appreciate all the help..
