Action as a tile

Is it against MVC pattern to include an action, which prepares the data, as a tile? something like this:
<tiles:insert page="/prepareData.do"/>
The reason for that is that I cannot forward to this action and than have action forward to jsp due to the fact that I am using a UrlController for tiles.
Thank you.

I guess that depends on what this "preparing of data" means? Having your JSP include the results of a servlet or a Struts action is not that different from including the results of another JSP -- it's the semantics, not the technology, that matters most here.

Well,I don't think it matters...
Main advantage of tiles is that it makes our JSP coding pattern based...
If you can do that,then you are using tiles to your advantage,otherwise not...

Well, this action gets the data from database and populates one of the beans that is used on the jsp page.
