Mikael,
I think you could get it down to 1 managed-bean by doing this
<component jsfid="baseLayout" extends="clay">
<attributes>
<set name="clayJsfid" value="/layout/layout.html"/>
</attributes>
<symbols>
<set name="managed-bean-name" value="layoutBean"/>
<set name="title" value="Fasta"/>
<set name="navContent" value="/layout/defaultNav.html"/>
<set name="headerContent" value="/layout/defaultHeader.html"/>
<set name="bodyContent" value="/layout/defaultBody.html"/>
<set name="footerContent" value="/layout/defaultFooter.html"/>
</symbols>
</component>
And declaring layoutBean in your faces-config.xml. Then you would
only need to do this once for all your layouts. Gary, can the
managed-bean be optional?
