RE: Tiles: Use layout definitions from config within jsp? (Corrected + Working Answer)

[David Friedman <hu...@ix.netcom.com>]

Matt,

Yes, I had the syntax wrong:

<%@ taglib uri="struts-tiles" prefix="tiles" %>
<tiles:insert definition="DefinitionFromTilesXMLFile" />

You can also override pieces using "tiles:put" statements
in your JSP.  This works (just tested it on Struts v1.1 + Tomcat).

I found the correct syntax in the User and Developer Guides -> "Tiles
Tags" -> "Tiles Taglib Syntax Reference".

Regards,
David

How does that help?
I know how to build definitions from within JSP pages, but that's not what
I'm asking.
I'm asking how to use a definition that is _already defined_ in the
tiles-defs.xml file from within the JSP page, so I don't have to hard-code
the layout filename or definition with my JSP pages.
