Vince,
You need to import the Tiles attribute before you reference it:
<tiles:importAttribute name="titleKey" ignore="true" />
<c:out value="${titleKey}" />
Thanks,
Paul

Subject: using <fmt:message> with Tiles and Struts
I am building a Struts Web application and I'm using Tiles for the first
time. I have it all set up and working nicely. My problem comes in the fact
that I want to use a standard messages.resources file for my page titles.
For example
home.title=Main Home Page
info.title=Intro Page
etc.
I am used to setting the bundle at the top of the page like:
<fmt:setBundle basename="messages"/>
and then directly accessing keys as follows:
<fmt:message key="home.title"/>
however I am now using tiles so what I had hoped was to use a tiles
attribute to pass the key :
<definition name=".home" extends=".baseDef">
<put name="titleKey" value="title.home" />
</definition>
and then use the key in the tile like:
<fmt:message key="${titleKey}"/>
however, nothing I've tried has worked (including just trying the
fmt:message tag w/o using Tiles like :
<c:set var="titleKey" value="home.title"/>) .
For some reason, the fmt:message tag refuses to accept expression values.
Can anyone offer me a best practice on how to handle this? Or at least solve
my problem?
