Hello, I will go direct to the point. I have tried to run a jsp in two ways:
1. Direct Access: Access it directly (without using tiles). The jsp include all. (Html, body etc:) createDummy.jsp : path: TOMCAT_HOME\webapps\myapplication\tiles <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" " http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd";> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml";> <head> <title>MyPage</title> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" /> <script language="javascript" type="text/javascript" src="mypage.js"></script> <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" media="all" href="mypage.css" /> </head> <body bgcolor="#FFFFFF"><div id="container"> <form action="bla bla" method="post" class="mypageStyle"> <fieldset> .... .... 2. Using Tiles as follow: tiles.xml (Tiles version: Tiles2 2.0.5 3 jars included). path: TOMCAT_HOME\webapps\myapplication\WEB-INF <!DOCTYPE tiles-definitions PUBLIC "-//Apache Software Foundation//DTD Tiles Configuration 2.0//EN" "http://tiles.apache.org/dtds/tiles-config_2_0.dtd";> <tiles-definitions> ..... <definition name=".myLayout" template="/layouts/myLayout.jsp"></definition> ...... </tiles-definitions> createDummy.jsp file: path: TOMCAT_HOME\webapps\myapplication\ <%@ taglib uri="http://tiles.apache.org/tags-tiles"; prefix="tiles" %> <tiles:insertDefinition name=".myLayout"> <tiles:putAttribute name="title" value="Create Dummy Page"/> <tiles:putAttribute name="body" value="/tiles/createDummy.jsp"/> </tiles:insertDefinition> myLayout.jsp file: path: TOMCAT_HOME\webapps\myapplication\layouts\ <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" " http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd";> <%@ taglib prefix="f" uri="http://java.sun.com/jsf/core"; %> <%@ taglib prefix="h" uri="http://java.sun.com/jsf/html"; %> <%@ taglib uri="http://tiles.apache.org/tags-tiles"; prefix="tiles" %> <html> <head> <title><tiles:getAsString name="title"/></title> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" /> <script language="javascript" type="text/javascript" src="js/mypage.js"></script> <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" media="all" href="css/mypage.css" /> </head> <body bgcolor="#FFFFFF"> <f:view> <tiles:insertAttribute name="body" flush="false"/> </f:view> </body> </html> createDummy.jsp path: TOMCAT_HOME\webapps\myapplication\tiles <%@ taglib prefix="f" uri="http://java.sun.com/jsf/core"; %> <%@ taglib prefix="h" uri="http://java.sun.com/jsf/html"; %> <%@ taglib prefix="a4j" uri="http://richfaces.org/a4j"; %> <%@ taglib prefix="rich" uri="http://richfaces.org/rich"; %> <f:loadBundle basename="...................." var="msg"/> <f:subview id="editDummy"> <div id="container"> <form action="........." method="post" class="niceStyle"> <fieldset> ..... ..... Till now looking good? Well not exactly. The first version is works fine (while access to the following path: http://localhost:8080/myapplication/tiles/createDummy.jsp<http://localhost:8080/ginvest/tiles/createFund.jsp> while the second case i encountered css style/javascript/design issue with my page. It hard to explain what the problem exactly but i would say that there exist a difference between two approaches. Can you figure it out ? Thanks...
