Kevin, I think you are correct in that someone hijacked your thread and went JSF(MyFaces) on you. And now, back to your topic: Tiles within Struts...
To dynamically alter the components of a Tile definition, I recommend using a Tiles Controller. That should allow you to add or remove components to a tile, like having manual control over a < put ... / > tag. Tiles controllers can be used as replacement to an Action class or specified in the tile definition itself for that extra self-control (so to speak). For more information, I recommend reading the "tilesAdvancedFeatures.pdf" link under the "Documentation" section of the page (scroll down) over at http://www.lifl.fr/~dumoulin/tiles Regards, David -----Original Message----- From: Leahy, Kevin [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, November 22, 2005 6:45 PM To: 'Struts Users Mailing List' Subject: RE: Tiles Again - Can anyone help? Hi I just had a quick look at the link. Without looking too much in depth, isn't myfaces a jsf implementation or have I got that wrong? Do I really need to go outside struts and tiles. Learning struts and hibernate at once is already enough for my head. ;) -----Original Message----- From: Martin Gainty [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 22 November 2005 23:21 To: Struts Users Mailing List Subject: Re: Tiles Again - Can anyone help? Good Afternoon Kevin- I believe the JspTilesViewHandlerImpl handler will take the defined viewid and then compute the tileID substitute any extension by .tiles Append .tiles for corresponding definition JspTilesViewHandlerImpl must be configured as an application within faces-config.xml check out http://myfaces.apache.org/tomahawk/tiles.html cungantach?
