Cool. Thanks.
Here's another one. Sometimes, template A which depends on template B etc.
When I do this, I find I'm having to re-define the attributes in each
successive template.
<tiles:put name="foo"><tiles:getAsString name="foo></tiles:put>
I find I have to do this for several tiles. Is there a magic solution for
this too?
