Re: Question 1 - No, you can use other taglibs inside a decorator file. My user.jsp (decorator) has the following lines:
<%-- Include struts tag declaration --%> <%@ include file="/common/taglibs.jsp"%> <title><decorator:title/> - <s:text name="webapp.name"/></title> (it also uses <c:if> in places. All you need to do is declare the taglib with e.g. <%@ taglib uri="/struts-tags" prefix="s" %> Simple!) Re: Question 4 - In my project, I have the filters mapped like this: <filter-mapping> <filter-name>struts-cleanup</filter-name> <url-pattern>/*</url-pattern> </filter-mapping> <filter-mapping> <filter-name>sitemesh</filter-name> <url-pattern>/*</url-pattern> </filter-mapping> <filter-mapping> <filter-name>struts</filter-name> <url-pattern>/*</url-pattern> </filter-mapping> Hope this helps, Brian On Tue, Nov 30, 2010 at 9:35 AM, Greg Lindholm <greg.lindh...@gmail.com>wrote: > I'm working on my first project that will use sitemesh and have some > questions on basic configuration with Struts2. > > Info: > struts 2.2.1 > sitemesh 2.4.1 > My decorators will be JSP files > > I'm looking at the struts2-sitemesh-plugin doc > http://struts.apache.org/2.2.1/docs/sitemesh-plugin.html > > Question 1) If I want to access struts2 resources (from the action or > value stack) and use struts2 tags from the decorator JSP then I need > to use the sitemesh plugin, is that correct? > > Question 2) Do I need to configure the FreemarkerDecoratorServlet and > VelocityDecoratorServlet since I'm only using JSP decorators?
