how to call other tiles from baselayout


I have a problem. I am using tiles for my layout.
I have a baselayout.jsp where I am inserting all my header, body and footer
tags.

I want to insert another attribute called breadcrumbs which have some insert
statements. for example, 
my tile definition is:

<definition name="baseLayout" path="/templates/baseLayout.jsp" >    
  <put name="pageTitle" value="Watershed Planning" type="string" />
  <put name="header" value="/templates/header.jsp" type="page" />
  <put name="breadcrumb" value="/templates/breadcrumbs.jsp" type="page" />
  <put name="footer"   value="/templates/footer.jsp" type="page" />
  <put name="pagecontent" value="/wspb_planbuilderintro.jsp" />
 </definition>

Can i do this in my base layout:
 <tiles:insert attribute="breadcrumbs" >
        <tiles:put name="pageTitle" beanName="pageTitle" beanScope="tile" />
 </tiles:insert> 

Value of breadcrumbs is another jsp file:
      <li><tiles:getAsString name="pageTitle" /></li>

Thanks

Just to clear things, do you need to replace the "pageTitle" or your 
"breadcrumb" attribute? Anyway if you want to replace the "pageTitle" 
attribute you need to do this way:

<tiles:insert definition="baseLayout">

  <tiles:put name="pageTitle" beanName="pageTitle" beanScope="tile" />

</tiles:insert>
