Martin, Your question was excellent: can I use SiteMesh with the standard Struts taglibs? YES. Since SiteMesh is a filter that sees completed web pages, I've had no problem using Struts taglibs with SiteMesh in the past.
The SiteMesh filter just allows the page, be it html, a jsp you called, a struts action, etc. to have it's final layout modified slightly. This allows many different types of pages (or directories, etc.) to be wrapped in your site(s) template. It also allows for unusual things like automatically inserting Browser specific (see the examples) code snippets, style sheets, etc. It can be especially easy to cobrand pages or your site using SiteMesh. If you would like to skim across some SiteMesh examples, a war can be found here: https://sitemesh.dev.java.net/files/documents/887/7638/sitemesh-example.war Regards, David -----Original Message----- From: Martin Gainty [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, December 14, 2005 10:45 PM To: Struts Users Mailing List Subject: Re: generel tiles question.. Good Evening David- Dumb question but I have to ask Are you restricted to just sitemesh tags in the decorator pages or can you use struts-taglib as well?
