tile problem: how to find the "put" tag name attribute from called jsp/servlet

["bmilbratz@outstart.com" <bm...@outstart.com>]

Hi,

This is a tiles "how can I do this" question.  Can a jsp/servlet  called 
via the tiles 'put' tag know it's "region" name?

For example, can the 'getcontent'  servlet  (below) know get the 'name' 
attribute of the 'put' tag, is "center section"?

 <definition
      name="/include/tiles/simple.jsp" page="include/tiles/simple.jsp">
  <put name="title" value="My title" direct="true"  />
  <put name="center_section" direct="true" path="/servlet/getcontent"/> 
 </definition>

I know that we can define tiles via xml or jsps. And that the 'put' can 
include either a jsp, servlet or another tile definition. Also that the 
we can use a tile controller to 'pre-load' data into the tilecontext.

What's not clear: whether the tile "body" knows 'from whence its called'.

thanks,

bill m

Short answer: no. But the question is: what do you want it for? I mean, 
I don't see anything obviously useful, except of some debugging 
information...

Ciao
