Hi Doug, Unfortunately, templates within templates is not supported in the tag implementation. Here's a link to another discussion on this issue...
http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/beehive-user/200611.mbox/[EMAIL PROTECTED] I guess one alternative would be to try and use tiles. There is some support for tiles within NetUI and that might give you the embedded layout design you're looking for.
