Tiles questions
I have a mainLayout which has a header, body and footer.(and thus I have
4 jsps, mainLayout.jsp, header.jsp, body.jsp, and footer.jsp, and notice
that body.jsp will be different for each different screen page).
One setting can be of:
<!-- shared by all -->
<definition name="mainLayout" path="/jsp/common/mainLayout.jsp">
<put name="header" value="/jsp/common/header.jsp" />
<put name="body" value="" />
<put name="footer" value="/jsp/common/footer.jsp" />
</definition>
<!-- this is different from each screen page -->
<definition name="viewemployee" extends="mainLayout">
<put name="body" value="/jsp/employee/employee.jsp" />
</definition>
Then I have a further requirement: Manager pages's body has left, middle
and right. All manager pages will have common left and right, but middle
will be different. So I define the managerBody like
<!-- every manager page shares this -->
<definition name="managerBody"
path="/jsp/common/managerBodyLayout.jsp">
<put name="left" value="/jsp/common/left.jsp"/>
<put name="middle" value=""/>
<put name="right" value="/jsp/common/right.jsp"/>
</definition>
Then if I have managerPage1, I can define as:
<definition name="managerPage1" extends="mainLayout">
<put name="bodyContent" value="managerBody"/>
<put name="middle"
value="/jsp/manager/managerMiddle1.jsp"/>"/>
</definition>
Unfortunately, this doesn't work. Can somebody help? Thanks.

That's because the tiles inheritance you are trying to use doesn't make
sense. The managerPage1 tile does NOT have a "middle" element in the
parent tile (which is defined in the managerBody tile). You probably
need to use a different strategy, perhaps check the role and forward to
the proper tile (tile layout for managers and tile layout for non-managers).
