the biggest thing for me is that you limit the potential layout bugs, and
you make it possible to change the layout, site wide, with the editing of a
single file. The alternative (just using <jsp:include.../>) forces you to
replicate the layout framework (typically this includes a set of nested
tables where you set the header, footer, sidebar, and etc...) on every
single jsp page.

Subject: struts-template tag library vs. <jsp:include/>
Hi,
What are the differences between using the struts template tag library and
jsp's include action? What are the advantages and trade-offs of each?
Thanks,
