Tiles-def.xml
Can I define a constant in tiles-def.xml so that I can used it in all
places inside this file?

That approach works except in your following note it should be
<tiles:importAttribute name="myList" />
<c:forEach var="item" items="${myList}">
c:out value="${item}" />
</c:forEach>
Thanks a lot.

I think that you could use the list attribute:
<definition....>
<putList name="myList">
<add value="myfirst.css" />
<add value="mysecond.css" />
</putList>
</definition>
And in your JSP:
<tiles:importAttribute name="myList" />
<c:forEach var="item" items="myList">
<c:out var="item" />
</c:forEach>

RE: Tiles-def.xml
Posted by "Zhang, Larry (L.)" <lz...@ford.com>.
My problem is:
I have 10 (or more ) css files, some pages use 2 of those, some of those
uses 5 of those, some pages use 6 of those, and this combination is
totally random. Then we I create tiles template, I can't put all these
css in the template, instead I thought I can do the following:
My template:
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en" lang="en-us">
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1"
/>
<title><tiles:getAsString name="title" ignore="true"/></title>
<style type="text/css" media="screen">
<tiles:getAsString name="myCss1" ignore="true"/>
<tiles:getAsString name="myCss2" ignore="true"/>
<tiles:getAsString name="myCss3" ignore="true"/>
<tiles:getAsString name="myCss4" ignore="true"/>
<tiles:getAsString name="myCss5" ignore="true"/>
<tiles:getAsString name="myCss6" ignore="true"/>
<tiles:getAsString name="myCss7" ignore="true"/>
<tiles:getAsString name="myCss8" ignore="true"/>
<tiles:getAsString name="myCss9" ignore="true"/>
<tiles:getAsString name="myCss10" ignore="true"/>
</style>
</head>
<body>
<tiles:insert attribute="header"/><br />
<tiles:insert attribute="bodyContent"/><br />
<tiles:insert attribute="footer"/><br />
</body>
</html>
Then I need to define myCss1 and etc in the tiles-def.xml, I don't know
what is the good one to define this, I don't want to define
them like the following :
<definition name="default" path="/jsp/common/main.jsp">
<put name="header" value="/jsp/common/header.jsp" />
<put name="footer" value="/jsp/common/footer.jsp" />
</definition>
<definition name="mySepeficPage" extends="default">
<put name="title" value="SMERF > Change Request Queue" />
put name="myCss1" value="the path to the Css1"
<put name="bodyContent" value="/jsp/mySpefic.jsp" />
</definition>
Since that will make my tiles-def.xml too massy.
So the original issue is how to put the dynamic css files in the
template between <head>....<head>. I would think this is a common issue
for tiles community. Do you have any better way to resolve this issue?

No, but probably you can do it in another way.
What do you want to do exactly?
