The <html:link> tag can't be used with a Tiles name as path. You need to use an intermediate action. An often used solution is to have an action taking a definition name as http parameter, like the tiles DefinitionDispatcherAction. This action should check if the provided definition name is allowed, otherwise it is possible to access all your definitions. Your global forward could now look like:
<forward name="home" path="path.to.dispatcheraction.do?def=plantsec.index"/> Hope this help, Cedric [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: >I'm going back and trying to implement some "best practices" that I >skipped over in the beginning.
