Solution number 2, propagate the value down:
headerContentFooter.jsp:
<tiles:useAttribute name="nav_key" />
<p>nav_key = <%=nav_key%><p>
<tiles:insert attribute="content">
<tiles:put name="nav_key"><tiles:getAsString name="menuMain"/></tiles:put>
</tiles:insert>

Subject: Re: tiles and parameters
You are getting error because "nav_key" is in page context.
thus you cannot retrieve value in included page...
YOu may use <tiles:useAttribute name="nav_key" scope="request" />
in headercontentfooter.jsp
