Thanks Dave -- Perhaps if I explain this in a different context we can arrive at the optimum solution. To begin, I am writing a generic CRUD where all my results are complex "tiles" pages. I have a single Action that handles each of the CRUD user gestures as follows:
<action name="course_*" method="{1}" class="course"> <result name="input" type="tiles">{1}Course.page</result> <result name="list" type="tiles">{1}Course.page</result> <result name="add" type="tiles">{1}Course.page</result> <result name="show" type="tiles">{1}Course.page</result> <result name="edit" type="tiles">{1}Course.page</result> <result name="destroy" type="tiles">{1}Course.page</result> </action> After trying several techniques to prepare the tiles using S2 and falling short, I then shifted my concentration to the Tiles ViewPreparer to perform the tiles setup. From that vantage point, is was even worse! Actions work with beans/OGNL in a custom tag friendly way; tiles does not. The ViewPreparer works fine for stashing collections of beans in the request scope and then manually working them into the JSP. What I nearly have working is the attached workflow. Examples to better understand graphic hyperlink=course_add method=add() in CourseAction result=add from add() in CourseAction tile=addCourse.page tile <form> action=course_save() in CourseAction
