Even if such mechanism exist, you will not get what you want from within 'top.jsp', because you are one level behind "site.default". You can effectively put an attribute carrying the name. But you need to pass if to top.jsp when you insert it. This can be done in site-template.jsp with something like : <tiles:insert name="top" > <tiles:put name="name" beanName="name" beanScope="template" /> </tiles:insert> Cedric Sean wrote: > I have a definition something like this: > > <definition name="site.default" > template="/WEB-INF/views//site-template.jsp"> > <put name="top" content="/WEB-INF/views/top.jsp" /> > <put name="left" content="/WEB-INF/views/left.jsp" /> > <put name="content" content="/WEB-INF/home.jsp" /> > <put name="right" content="/WEB-INF/right.jsp" /> > <put name="bottom" content="/WEB-INF/bottom.jsp" /> > </definition> > > from within the top.jsp and left.jsp I want to obtain the "name" of > the calling compontent definition to do something.
