<%@ taglib uri="http://www.opensymphony.com/sitemesh/decorator" prefix="decorator"%>
<%@ taglib uri="http://www.opensymphony.com/sitemesh/page" prefix="page"%>
<table width="100%" height="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">
<tr>
<td>
<page:applyDecorator page="/jsp/decorator/header.jsp" name="panel" title="menu"/>
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>
<decorator:body/>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
and header.jsp is as follow
<%@ taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/jsf/html" prefix="h" %>
<%@ taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/jsf/core" prefix="f" %>
<f:view>
<table>
<tr>
<td>
<h:outputText id="userName" value="Test Value"/>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
</f:view>
my faces servlet mapping and sitemesh mappings are as follow (in web.xml)

<url-pattern>/faces/*</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
