tile question

How do I add action to a common element (header.jsp) for tile layout?

thanks

Hi Hong Yi,

If I understand your question, you want to use header.jsp in several tiles?.?.

That being the case, you can extend a tile from a parent. Example:

Suppose you have an action mapping in your struts-config.xml to display your home page, which you want to incorporate header.jsp

In your tiles-defs.xml, do the following:

In this case, tile:showhome inherits tile:layout which contains header.jsp.

Now, in layout.jsp, do something like this:

Now, you can reuse layout by extending it in other tiles and changing the page.body name attribute to whatever jsp applies for the other pages.

I hope that answers your question...
Aloha,
Doug
