I think this template structure is helpful for the DRY (don't repeat yourself) concept. Imagine: you are changing the portal to a new design: would you like to edit and test the same snippet in all the pages? Something similar is aimed in the Tiles framework within Struts framework using JSP(http://struts.apache.org/struts-tiles/index.html). Could you take a look at it if it is helpful integrating this in your future work on JSP templates? > difficult to edit a template in a editor (e.gEclipse). Maybe it could be helpful in documentation a short "how-to": editing templates in editors (e.gEclipse). (helpful mainly for beginners like I am :)) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
