Problem with using global forwards with tiles: I have these two global forwards: <global-forwards > <forward name="person" path="/person.do" /> <forward name="search" path=".search" /> </global-forwards>
The first one points to a "person" ActionMapping. This works perfectly in the tag <html:link forward="person"> The second one points to an entry in the tiles-def.xml: <definition name=".search" path="/layouts/pageLayout.jsp"> <put name="header" value="/tiles/headerTile.jsp" /> etc. </definition> But <html:link forward="search"> produces a link ending with: /layouts/.search That's definitely not what I have in mind!!! (Googling the issue seems to suggest that this should work.) Any clue on what the problem might be?
