I am trying to implement a template and I think it is very simple and perfect,
but still not working.

The code of the template is:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">

<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"
xmlns:ui="http://java.sun.com/jsf/facelets"
xmlns:h="http://java.sun.com/jsf/html"
xmlns:c="http://java.sun.com/jsp/jstl/core"
xmlns:fn="http://java.sun.com/jsp/jstl/functions"
xmlns:f="http://java.sun.com/jsf/core">

<h:head>
<title><ui:insert name="windowTitle"/></title>
<h:outputStylesheet library="css" name="styles.css"/>

</h:head>

<h:body>
<div id="container">
<div id="header">
<ui:insert name="header">
Default header goes here
</ui:insert>
</div>

<div id="sidebarLeft">
<ui:insert name="sidebarLeft">
Default sidebarLeft goes here
</ui:insert>
</div>

<div id="sidebarRight">
<ui:insert name="sidebarRight">
Default sidebar right
</ui:insert>
</div>
<div id="footer">
<ui:insert name="footer">
Footer
</ui:insert>
</div>
<ui:debug/>
</div>
</h:body>
</html>

and the code of the user is:

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">

<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"
xmlns:ui="http://java.sun.com/jsf/facelets"
xmlns:h="http://java.sun.com/jsf/html"
xmlns:c="http://java.sun.com/jsp/jstl/core"
xmlns:fn="http://java.sun.com/jsp/jstl/functions"
xmlns:f="http://java.sun.com/jsf/core">

<h:head>
<title>IGNORED</title>
</h:head>

<h:body>
<ui:composition template="/templates/masterLayout.xhtml">

</ui:composition>
</h:body>
</html>

The position of the files are:
- templates
---masterLayout.xhtml
- outlets.xhtml

The output should be the full written in the template, but nothing shows. The page is blank

What is wrong?

Welcome to the JavaRanch, Mikel!

You will find a "Code" button on our message editor that can wrap special tags around Java code, XML, and other pre-formatted text. It makes them easier to read.

If you get a blank page when using a template or include, there's a problem with the template that is being included.

Unfortunately, there's not likely to be any helpful messages, so what I do is strip down the included file to something basic like a "hello" outputText and keep adding back what I took out until I find the failing element.

The secret of how to be miserable is to constantly expect things are going to happen the way that they are "supposed" to happen.

You can have faith, which carries the understanding that you may be disappointed. Then there's being a willfully-blind idiot, which virtually guarantees it.

Remember to always leap before you look. But always take the time to smell the tiny ads:
