I am having an issue getting Tiles to work. I am totally new to Struts
so bear with me. The issue is I don't see anything. I got to home.do
(which is set up as what the user will see first) and it is totally
blank and the source is totally empty. I think I have everything in my
configuration correct but don't know what to do. Here are my files:
/WEB-INF/tiles-def.xml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1" ?>
<!DOCTYPE tiles-definitions PUBLIC
"-//Apache Software Foundation//DTD Tiles Configuration 1.3//EN"
"http://struts.apache.org/dtds/tiles-config_1_3.dtd";>
<tiles-definitions>
<definition name="baseDef" path="/layout/layout.jsp">
<put name="pageTitle" value="Kentucky Academy of Technology
Education" />
<put name="header" value="/layout/header.jsp"/>
<put name="nav" value="/layout/nav.jsp"/>
<put name="footer" value="/layout/footer.jsp"/>
<put name="body" value=""/>
</definition>
<definition name="homeDef" extends="baseDef">
<put name="pageTitle" value="KATE : WORM : Home" />
<put name="body" value="/pages/homeBody.jsp"/>
</definition>
</tiles-definitions>
/layout/layout.jsp:

I have these in my /WEB-INF/struts-config.xml file:
<controller
processorClass="org.apache.struts.tiles.TilesRequestProcessor"/>
<plug-in className="org.apache.struts.tiles.TilesPlugin" >
<set-property property="definitions-config"
value="/WEB-INF/tiles-defs.xml" />
<set-property property="moduleAware" value="true" />
</plug-in>
Can someone point me in the right direction?
Thanks,
