I am still no closer to a solution to my problem with tiles. I will explain the scenario again in hopes that someone will provide some insight into my problem.
I am using tiles to provide layouts in my xml syntax JSP pages. Here is the original page that I want to use within a <c:forEach> tag. I attempt to add my layout to decorate the quote, but no matter what I do I cannot make the quote available to my subtile. My quoteForm is in session scope. I can see the power of tiles, but I thought I could give access of beans to my subtiles. No matter where I place my <tiles:importAttribute/> it has no effect. What am I missing something? <!-- Original page --> <c:forEach var="quote" items="${quoteForm.quoteValues}"> <table> <tr> <td>${quote.offerPriceLightValue.sizeValue.size}"/></td> </tr> </table> <tiles:insert definition=".quote.list.item" flush="false"> <tiles:put name="quote" beanName="quote"/> </tiles:insert> </c:forEach> Instead of putting the layout code in the page I want to wrap the quote with a layout my designer created. <!-- Tile added to apply layout page --> <c:forEach var="quote" items="${quoteForm.quoteValues}"> <tiles:insert definition=".quote.list.item" flush="false"> <tiles:put name="quote" beanName="quote"/> </tiles:insert> </c:forEach> I create the following definintion that extend my layout so I can wrap my qutoe. <!-- tiles definition --> <definition extends=".table.holder" name=".quote.list.item"> <put name="title" value="Test Box"/> <put name="content" value="/WEB-INF/jsp/tiles/actions/quote/list.item.jsp"/> </definition> Here is a simplified quote display that I would like to include as the content for my quote. <!-- Quote template page list.item.jsp --> <tiles:importAttribute/> <table> <tr> <td>${quote.offerPriceLightValue.sizeValue.size}" </td> </tr> </table> This is a simplified layout that I need to use to decorate the quote. <!-- table.holder.1 layout .quote.list.item extends to get decoration --> <table> <tr> <td><tiles:getAsString name="title"/></td> </tr> <tr> <td>"><tiles:insert attribute="content" ignore="true"/></td> </tr> </table> Thank you for your time, Jason Long CEO and Chief Software Engineer BS Physics, MS Chemical Engineering http://www.supernovasoftware.com -----Original Message----- From: Jason Long [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Saturday, February 19, 2005 3:59 PM To: 'Struts Users Mailing List' Subject: RE: Tiles scope headache assistance needed. quote.list.item is defiened as follows: <definition extends=".table.holder" name=".quote.list.item"> <put name="title" value="Test Box"/> <put name="content" value="/WEB-INF/jsp/tiles/actions/quote/list.item.jsp"/> </definition> ".table.holder" is a layout. I want to display my quote in this holder. The format for the quote is defined in list.item.jsp. Everything works except I cannot make quote available to the tile.
