This looks great, but I'm currently using Tiles. What would be involved
in switching? I know nothing about Velocity, would that replace the
Tiles definitions?
For the OP...

You've said what you want, but not what you've tried that didn't work.
Can you post your current tiles-defs and struts-config so we can see
what might be wrong?

AFAIK you can't conditionally switch which Tile you want-- if you're
using tiles-defs, then you define the tabs in advance. What you can do
is have the contents of the tab, the JSP, display one thing or the other
based on however you're deciding if someone is logged in.
So your admin.jsp might have:
<c:if test="${user.loggedIn}">
display some stuff
</c:if>
<c:if test="${not user.loggedIn}">
display some different stuff
</c:if>
(or use choose/when/otherwise instead of the two ifs, or use logic:equal
if you prefer the Struts tags.)
