There is no way, currently, to include an external resource at all. > <definition name="layout.content " > template="/WEB-INF/webtiles/search/searchLayout.jsp"> > <put-attribute name="customer" type="redirect" > value="/EXTERNAL/tiles/DisplayCustomerTile.jsp" /> > </definition> However you got the right path: probably the best way is to create a renderer that manages external resources. For info about renderers see: http://tiles.apache.org/2.1/framework/tutorial/advanced/attribute-rendering.html or http://tiles.apache.org/framework/tutorial/advanced/attribute-rendering.html (for Tiles 2.2.x) You might be interested in the HTTPClient project, to connect to the resource: http://hc.apache.org/httpcomponents-client/index.html Ciao Antonio
